General Product Description
Vermox Orange Tablets is an effective treatment for adults and children over 2 years with intestinal worm infections caused by threadworm. Only one dose. Vermox can also be used for whipworm, roundworm, or hookworm.
Vermox offers a range of worming solutions to suit your family's needs.
Vermox contains an ingredient called mebendazole which kills threadworms in a single dose by preventing the worm from absorbing glucose, which they need to survive.
No body weight measurements or dosage calculations needed.
Before treating for threadworm, evidence of infestation should be present. If a household member has threadworms, then each family member should be treated.

- The presence of tiny white threads around the anal region
