Description

Ovex Family Pack Tablets are used specifically for the treatment of threadworms found in the gut. The tablets contain mebendazole, which helps to prevent the worm infections in the gut.
Ingredients
Mebendazole 100mg.
Usage and Instructions
The treatment is a single tablet per person.
Adults and children over 2 years:
Take one tablet only.
The tablets are orange flavoured and may be chewed or swallowed whole.
Crush tablet before giving to young children.
Not recommended in children under 2 years.
A single dose of this medicine will kill threadworms. However, it may not destroy their eggs, which can cause re-infection and also infect other people. It is therefore strongly recommended that all members of the family (except pregnant and breast feeding women and children under two) are treated at the same time and that precautions are taken to prevent re-infection.
If symptoms continue, tell your doctor.
In case of re-infection, a second tablet can be taken after two weeks.
Warnings
Do not use Ovex:
If you have ever had a bad reaction to any of the ingredients.
If it is for a child under 2 years.
If you are pregnant or think you are pregnant.
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Ovex:
If you are taking any other medicines, including: metronidazole (a drug used to treat bacterial and protozoan infections) and cimetidine (a medicine used to treat excess stomach acidity).
Side Effects
Side effects following the use of Ovex Family Pack occur only in rare instances and are minor:
short-lived stomach ache or diarrhoea
allergic reactions (such as rashes, shortness of breath or itching).
Do not hesitate to tell your doctor or pharmacist if you notice any other side effects.
