Welcome to Heaalthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

Colicky intermittent abdominal pain in children with or without associated nausea and vomiting is most likely to be due to worm infestation of the intestine.
They may or may not pass worm
Single dose of Syrup Albendazole 400 mg if age more than 2 years or 200 mg if age is less than 2 years will suffice
I hope it helped
Do get back to me if you have any other query


Take Care
Wishing you and your family a happy and healthy life
