Treatment For Threadworms

[ruthandsam]

How long does it take for the threadworms to be killed off by medication? The whole family have been treated as recommended and we have a second dose of meds to take in 14 days if need be.

My 6 year old daughter has a party on Sunday and I could do with knowing if ok for her to mix with other children.

Many thanks

Usually about 2 weeks.

She probably got the threadworms from one of the little sweeties coming to the party, so don't worry at all - what goes round comes round and it's so easy to treat. Wait till the nit season comes along!

And....remember to keep good hand hygiene/washing clothes and linen on higher temperatures during the 2 weeks. Otherwise, everyone wil be fine after the second dose of meds x
