Usage

General Description

Pyrantel citrate is a medication that belongs to the class of anthelmintics, which are used to treat parasitic worm infections. It works by paralyzing the worms, making it easier for them to be expelled from the body. Pyrantel citrate is commonly used to treat infections caused by pinworms, roundworms, and hookworms. It is usually taken as a single dose and is well-tolerated with few reported side effects. This medication is available in both oral suspension and tablet form and is usually given to children and adults in varying doses depending on the type and severity of the infection. It is important to note that pyrantel citrate should not be used in individuals with a known allergy to the drug and should be used with caution in pregnant and breastfeeding women.
