I'm a bit confused about how much Albendazole an adult should take. Is there a specific dosage we should be aware of? Also, how often is it safe to take this medication? Would appreciate some guidance on this.

The usual dose of Albendazole for adults is 400 mg as a single dose for common parasitic infections. Depending on the condition (e.g., deworming or specific parasitic infections like hydatid disease), the frequency may vary. Always follow your doctor's advice for proper dosing and duration.

Question

I'm currently COVID positive but don't have a fever or cough. My doctor initially prescribed Pratham 500, and later, I think he mentioned taking DOXT. Does that mean I should stop taking Pratham and switch to DOXT, or should I be taking both of them together? Can I take DOXT and Pratham at the same time? Im just a bit confused about the right way to go about this.
