Deworming tablets are medications used to eliminate parasitic worms from the body, such as roundworms, tapeworms, and hookworms. These worms can cause a range of health problems, including malnutrition, anemia, and impaired physical and mental development, particularly in children. Deworming tablets work by paralyzing the muscles of the worms, causing them to lose their grip on the intestinal tract and be flushed out of the body through feces. The most commonly used deworming tablets are Albendazole and Mebendazole, which are administered orally. Deworming is recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a public health intervention for young children and preschool children. Mass deworming campaigns are conducted in schools, and teachers supervise the process, freeing up health workers to focus on other demands. The exercise is carried out biannually because worms take six months to mature and start sucking. Deworming has no serious side effects, but it can cause nausea and vomiting if a child has worms.
