POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy5 months agoA. For an 11-month-old baby, deworming is generally not recommended unless advised by a pediatrician. The World Health Organization (WHO) and most doctors suggest starting deworming from 1 year of age, especially if the child is at risk due to poor hygiene, playing outdoors, or eating contaminated food.
If your baby has symptoms like loss of appetite, stomach pain, bloating, itching around the anus, or unexplained weight loss, consult a pediatrician before giving any medicine. Commonly prescribed deworming medicines for children include Albendazole or Mebendazole, but the dosage and timing should be determined by the doctor.
