suhaina, the best thing is to ask your pharmacist.
Anti-pinworm drugs such as albendazole (Albenza), mebendazole (Vermox, OVEX), Piperazine and pyrantel pamoate (Pin-X, Reese's Pinworm Medication) are commonly used to treat pinworms.
I dunno where you live. If you're in the UK Boots sell Ovex and their own brand threadworm tablets. Elsewhere you can just ask for mebendazole.
oh.. i'm putting this here because although everyone is having a good laugh it is very common and should be treated. any of you who are parents should watch out for you kids scratching their butt - they can easily be picked up from other kids that don't wash their hands at school. also, in a lot of cases, there are no symptoms, not even the itchy butt.
hmm no i m not in uk.i m in pakistan.
i dont think these brands are available in pakistan
may b formula can be same but name must b different.
