Does Additional Intake Of Reese S Pinworm Medicine Cause Side Effects?
Our daughter has pinworms and so we all took Reese s Pin Worm medicine today. However, I failed to shake the bottle well before taking the dose and am wondering if I got all of the medication. The bottom of the bottle had some clumps of product. Would it hurt to take another dose tomorrow?

Hello,
The additional dose of anti worm medication would not harm your daughter in any manner and can be given very safely. Even many of the pediatricians do practice to prescribe multiple doses for varying period of times depending upon the intensity of the worm infestation.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
