Question : Hi Doctor,
My baby is 6 weeks old and my wife feeds the baby. Can my wife take tablet ZYBEND (for worms) as she is having stomach pain which seems to be because of worms.
Will it be safe to take ZYBEND as she breast feeds the baby nowadays.

Or any other safe option to cure worms for feeding mother.

Regards,
XXXX
