If your son has been given all vaccinations on time till now, that already includes polio vaccines. However, You can also still give him vaccination during the pulse polio programme. Deworming is advised every 6 months for his age. Albendazole is the medicine commonly used for deworming. You can get a prescription for the same from your doctor.
