Brief Answer:
Could be side effects
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
Noworm and Zentel both contain the same medication.
I suspect the side effects could be due to other factor like the expiry date, additives or preservatives in the preparation or the medication as such.
Need not worry, this is not serious and do not cause any future complications.
Next time do give Zentel instead of Norworm.
Hope, I answered your query.
Wish you good health.
Regards,
