Overview

The main treatment is a single dose of either mebendazole or albendazole, which kill the pinworms (not the eggs).These are available over-the-counter and by prescription. More than one household member is likely to be infected, so the entire household is often treated. The single-dose treatment is often repeated after 2 weeks.
