Can Zentel Be Taken For Intestinal Parasites?
Hi doctor! I suspect I am infected with some kind of parasites. I have seen a tiny white moving thing on my paper after defecting. I even felt it move. However, the test i did for the parasitologist was negative. I bought Zentel and wanted to know whether to be worried about ALL the side effects listed on the insert, it all sounds scary! And the pharmacist told me to take it once before bed & second time after 20 days. Is that correct? Thank you so much!
