A member asked:
Not sure if my 7 yrs old has pin worms, can i give him antiox for cleansing? does he need to see his doctor first?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Antiox?: Not sure what antiox is. Could not find it on-line. The pre eminent sign of pinworms is nocturnal anal itching. The treatment is an anthelmintic. Everyone in the family should be treated.
