Description
Ovex Suspension Banana Flavoured Family Pack is a liquid treatment for threadworm infections caused by intestinal parasites. It contains the active ingredient mebendazole, which works by preventing threadworms from absorbing the glucose they need to survive. The suspension format is ideal for individuals who have difficulty swallowing tablets, and its banana flavour makes it easier for children to take. One dose is usually sufficient to eliminate the worms, though a second dose may be required two weeks later to prevent reinfection.
- Effective treatment for threadworm infections.
- Banana flavour makes it easy to administer, especially for children.
- Suitable for adults and children over 2 years of age.
