Hizol Suspension is a medication used to treat parasitic worm infections in children. Hizol Suspension is effective against a range of parasitic worm infections in children. It restrains the worms from absorbing the body's essential nutrients, causing them to lose their energy and leading to their eventual death. The dead worms are then removed from your child's body through the stool.
Worms enter inside your child's body when your child eats or drinks something that's infected with a worm or its eggs. Once inside the body, these worms get attached to the inner walls of the intestines and can even enter other body organs. Hizol Suspension works by keeping the worms from absorbing sugar (glucose), thereby depleting their energy level. This causes the worms to die, thereby treating your child's infection.
What are the signs of a worm infection in children?
If your child experiences an itchy bottom (rectal area), difficulty sitting, fatigue, and restless sleep due to anal itching or persistent stomach pain with loss of appetite or frequent indigestion, it might indicate worm infestation. Additionally, pica may be present, where your child eats inedible substances such as mud. Consult a doctor immediately if you notice any of these symptoms.
How can children become infected with intestinal worms?
Children are commonly affected by intense infections. Transmission occurs through contaminated soil and human feces that contain worm eggs. This can happen when drinking water, eating unclean vegetables and fruits without washing or peeling, or playing in contaminated soil. After outdoor activities, remind your child to clean up using soap and water.
What does deworming mean?
Deworming is the process of eliminating worms from the body. Hizol Suspension is a commonly used treatment for deworming children.
Can other medications be given simultaneously with Hizol Suspension?
You can provide pain-relieving and fever-reducing medications unless your doctor advises against it. However, some medications should not be taken with Hizol Suspension to avoid potential side effects. Consult a doctor before administering any additional medications.
What is the recommended time for administering Hizol Suspension?
Hizol Suspension can be given at any time of day as long as it is accompanied by a fat-containing food like milk.
Who should not take Hizol Suspension?
Children with known allergies to albendazole or similar medications like mebendazole or thiabendazole in the past should not receive Hizol Suspension. Signs of an allergic reaction include an itchy skin rash, shortness of breath, and swelling of the face or tongue. Inform your doctor about any medical conditions and other medications your child is taking to ensure safe administration.
