[|Human|] Hi doctor. My baby is 1 year and 2months old. She is taking metronidazole and furazolidone along with prebiotics added to his milk due to amoebiasis, after 1day taking of the furazolidone. I notice tiny greyish worm in her stool,but im not sure if its a worm. Its length i think 1inch or half an inch. Then the day after tomorowi saw it again but this time several of it. What could it be? Is it the side effect of the anti biotics ? What kind of intestinal worm it is? How will i treat it? Hope you could help me. Thanks
[|AI|]  Thanks for posting your query at Chat Doctor. The worms are unrelated to the antibiotics she has taken. There can be several types of intestinal worms. You can give the child Alb end syrup (Albendazole) at the dose of 6 mg/kg (syrup contains 20 mg/ml) at night. [I could have given the exact dose if you had mentioned the body weight of the child.] Repeat the dose after 14 days. I hope that would give the baby relief. Hope that helps. Feel free to revert in case of further queries if any.
