When a person becomes suspected of being infected with worms, it is necessary to urgently consult a specialist to undergo a diagnostic test and to identify the type of parasites that are localized in the body. Self-medication in this situation is strongly discouraged, since medications are very toxic and affect only certain types of helminths. In case of infection with enterobiasis, which causes pinworms, most often affecting people of different age categories, doctors usually prescribe Nemosol. When infested with these helminths, this drug is considered to be the most effective. A drug familiar to many acts according to the following principle:
- In the intestine of pinworms, destruction of cytoplasmic cells occurs;
- The course of biochemical processes changes, since the drug suppresses the utilization of glucose;
- The moving muscles of parasitic worms are blocked, so they lose their activity.
This in the treatment of pinworms causes their rapid death. The advantage of using Nemosol in enterobiosis is that it acts not only on adult specimens of helminths, but also on their living larvae, as well as eggs. The active substance of Nemosol is albendazole, which not only acts depressingly on worms, but is also absorbed into the patient's blood. A few hours after taking the tablets, traces of it are determined in bile, urine, spinal fluid and bone and liver tissues. Because of this, the patient may have various side effects. To avoid this, a specialist consultation is necessary.
Many people who are prescribed this medicine, the question arises about how many hours after Nemozola killing pinworms. Specialists note that for complete removal of all parasites from the body takes 10 to 15 hours. Often, after taking Nemosol, the pinworm leaves live, but greatly weakened. The effectiveness of these tablets in the treatment of helminthic invasions caused by roundworms is undeniable, therefore they are widely used in enterobiosis.
How is Nemozol treated with pinworms?
In the fight against pinworms, a single use of a medicament prescribed by a specialist is not enough, since the risk of repeated self-infection is high. It is necessary to observe a number of general hygiene rules that will help not only to effectively save a person from enterobiosis, but also prevent the occurrence of repeated infection. Experts during the therapeutic measures that destroy helminths recommend the following:
- Always wash your hands with antibacterial soap before meals, and after visiting public places and a bathroom;
- Contraindicated to scratch itchy places;
- Bed linen is changed once a week, and underwear twice a day. All of it should be subjected not only to washing, but also to boiling, and ironing from 2 sides.
Drug medication for pinworms Nemozol should be administered by the whole family. Acquire this drug is possible only after consulting a doctor, because only a parasitologist can assign the right course of therapy. With extreme caution, the following categories of patients should be taken care of:
- Pregnant women;
- Mothers during breastfeeding;
- People with retinal retina;
- The drug is not prescribed for children under 2 years.
Very important for people with enterobiasis, is the dosage of Nemosol. As you know, improper use of the drug can lead to its overdose, or to a situation where the amount of the drug is not enough to achieve complete release of pinworms from the body. Specialists prescribe the use of this drug against pinworms according to the following criteria:
- For children 2-5 years of age Nemozol in suspension is prescribed 0.2 g once;
- For children from 5 years and adults, a single use of 0.4 g of the drug is recommended.
