Hi, what would u recommend to treat pinworm in adults? now that vermox is no longer available, what is the most effective drug of choice? either over the counter or rx?

Pin-X: Annoying but harmless condition - this is usually what I recommend to my patients. Have to ask the pharmacist at your store about it. http://www.drugs.com/mtm/pin-x.html
