Ovex Family Pack — 4 Single-Tablet Treatments

Each tablet contains mebendazole 100 mg. Suitable for adults and children aged 2 years and over.

4 tablets Single-dose per person Chewable or swallow whole

What it does

Ovex Family Pack treats threadworm (pinworm) infections of the gut. Mebendazole stops the worms from absorbing the sugars they need to survive, helping clear the infection. Treating the whole household at the same time helps prevent re-infection.

Directions & Dosage

Age Dose for threadworms (Enterobius vermicularis)
Adults & children 2+ years One tablet (100 mg) as a single dose for each household member at the same time.

If re-infection is suspected, a second single tablet may be taken after 2 weeks. Do not exceed the stated dose.

Children under 2 years Do not use. Ask a doctor or pharmacist for advice.

Tablets may be chewed, crushed, or swallowed whole with water. Good hygiene (hand-washing, short nails, daily morning washing, and frequent laundering of sleepwear/bedding) is essential to help prevent re-infection.

  • Side effects are uncommon but may include stomach pain, diarrhoea, or rash. Stop taking and seek medical help if you get signs of an allergic reaction (e.g., swelling of the face/throat, difficulty breathing, severe rash).
  • If symptoms persist or recur after treatment and hygiene measures, speak to a healthcare professional.
  • Keep out of the sight and reach of children. Store below 25 °C. Do not use after the expiry date shown on the pack.

Ingredients

How to help prevent re-infection
