I have given this to my 8 year old and it seemed to work within 24 / 36 hours. We soon saw the dead ones - and there were loads.

If they are still wiggling, maybe you need another dose??

Hope you get it sorted soon!

You definitely need to take another dose after a fortnight, but if you have that many, it might be worth phoning your surgery tomorrow and asking for a phone consultation. Or explain to the receptionist and hope the dr prescribes something without an appointment.

I only saw two but pretty sure they were moving.... Yuck. I will definitely take another dose two weeks after the first, Hoping for no itching tonight as that'd mean they are getting low on energy and slowly dying!

Oiled Mebeverine is not adsorbed so has to reach the buggers with normal transit. When you take your next dose have some corn on cob with it and it will act as a marker.

No sensations again last night so praying this means they are dead or at least dying. Good idea dratsea about sweetcorn at the same time! Will remember that for next dose and any future infections.
