I've had parasites for 3 months now and my doc gave me a 5 day supply of Vermox (100 mg). I'm on my 5th day but I still feel the parasites inside and he wont give me anymore meds.

I have worms in my stomach and it really hurts. I tried vermox compresse tablets 500 mg but it wasn't effective. My doctor recommended me mintezol tablets, but I can't find them anywhere. Please can someone help me cause I really need help as soon as you can respond to this question because my stomach really hurts. ## Omg!! I know this is too little too late. But I don't even think that's possible is it? Worms? ## /just because u dont have them it doesnt mean its impossible. Every 6th of human has parasites at some stage of life, yes in usa or even europe. Its just a subject no one wants to discuss loudly, cuz its embarassing... u can get them from junk food, or swimming in lake or ocean... or simply from other human being
