Brief Answer:
Albendazole with Ivrmectin.

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
The best medicine is to take a single dose of Albendazole with Ivermectin. This tablet should be taken on an empty stomach, meaning early in the morning. No tea or food to be taken for 1 hour.

Please repeat this after 15 days.

Also have a good habits of good nail paring, cleaning hands with soap and water before taking food. Avoid any outside food.

If the family members are also suffering , give them the same dose. It is same for all above the age of 2 years. ( Give suspension in children).

It is always preferable to get your stool tested.
