Is There Interaction Between Mebendazole And Praziquantel?
Question: How long after taking Mebendazole for Ascaris (three day treatment) should I wait to take Praziquantel for intestinal flukes?
Brief Answer:
no need to wait
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
The two drugs you've mentioned do not interact with each other so there is no reason to withhold treatment. You coukd even take them together but since the duration of each treatment is so short (3 days and 1 day) you can take them separately (start the second after you finish the first).
Kind regards!
