Question
Does it make sense to give a child deworming medicine if they often have stomach pain? If so, how many days does an 8-year-old child need to take deworming medicine, and how many pills a day?
Answer
The use of deworming medicine is typically calculated based on the child’s weight. For children between 1 and 3 years old weighing 10 to 14 kilograms, Taotang can be taken daily at a dose of 5 to 7 pills, for a continuous period of two days, with a total daily amount not less than 12 pills. Please strictly follow the medication’s contraindications and side effects instructions. It is recommended to consult a local doctor for proper medication use based on the child’s specific condition.
