Deworming in kids
My daughter is 2 years and 10 months old now. I had given her a dose of deworming in February 2021.
Can I give her deworming dose again now as I see some symptoms (itchiness around anus, restlessness at night). These symptoms do not occur every night but in the recent past I have observed more such episodes. She just cries pointing at the anal region.
Please provide the name of the medicine and dosage appropriate for her age.
Thank you

Can also be due to humidity that child is having sweating in perianal region, so even look out for that. Can also do a stool routine test.
