A. Hello mommy,Your child's doctor may suggest an over-the-counter remedy or prescribe medication (usually mebendazole, albendazole, or pyrantel) to kill the worms. The doctor may recommend that your whole family be treated, since pinworms spread so easily. Never force a child to take deworming and do not give it to a child who is crying. Do not give to infants younger than 1 year (0-11 months) of age. Give to children 1 year up to 5 years (12-59 months) of age. It is safe and effective to give deworming in combination with vitamin A every 4-6 months
