Guest guest Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 We gave 100mg 2x/day for 3 days. This was the instruction from our LLMD who is Dr. J in New Haven. I also confirmed this with the pharmacist. Our son is 4 1/2 and weighs about 45 pounds. They both instructed me to repeat the 3 day course of mebendazole again in 3 weeks to ensure we got them all including the eggs. > > Caryn and/or anyone with experience, > > I am considering ordering Vermox online. > I found the following doses for Vermox: > > One tablet (100 mg) twice daily (morning and evening) for three consecutive days.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 Thank you, that is extremely helpful! We went ahead and ordered it, but I didnd't realize that the course is usually repeated. > > > > Caryn and/or anyone with experience, > > > > I am considering ordering Vermox online. > > I found the following doses for Vermox: > > > > One tablet (100 mg) twice daily (morning and evening) for three consecutive days.

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 You repeat due to the possibility of unhatched eggs at the time of the first treatment. > > > > Caryn and/or anyone with experience, > > > > I am considering ordering Vermox online. > > I found the following doses for Vermox: > > > > One tablet (100 mg) twice daily (morning and evening) for three consecutive days.
