Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. The medicine mentioned is definitely useful in pin worm infestation. It may have to be repeated after a fortnight. Plus all the inner clothes and bed sheets need to be washed in boiled water. It is absolutely important to achieve a strict blood glucose control. Thanks.
