Hello. Yes you may repeat it if one month has passed since the last dose. Ideally the dose of deworming drug is repeated after 6 months. Take care of hygiene for whole family in form of washing hands before meals, while preparing meals and after passing motion. Take care!

No need to readminister the medicine. Ideally deowrming in children is done every 6 months. You can repeat it again after 6 months.
