Composition

Pyrantel Pamoate (250 Mg)

Nemocid Suspension is used primarily to manage intestinal worm infections, caused by roundworms, hookworms, and pinworms. It's part of a class of medicines known as anthelmintics.

In addition to managing these common parasitic infections, this medicine is also effective against some larval stages of these worms. The suspension formulation is particularly effective for easier dosage adjustment and administration, especially for paediatric patients.

Before starting the suspension, consult your doctor about the correct dosage and frequency. Always inform your doctor about any other ongoing medications or pre-existing conditions that you might have. If you experience any side effects while taking this medicine, notify your doctor immediately. Continue taking the medication for the full duration prescribed by your doctor for optimal results.

Directions for Use of Nemocid Suspension 10ml

Shake the bottle well before each use.
Measure the precise dose recommended by your doctor using a spoon or cup.

Nemocid Suspension is taken orally.

Taking Nemocid Suspension may cause the following side effects:

Nausea and vomiting
Diarrhoea
Abdominal pain
Headache
Dizziness or drowsiness

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve upon discontinuing the medicine. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

You can also effectively manage common side effects like nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and abdominal pain at home by taking the suspension with food or after your meals.

Nemocid Suspension contains pyrantel pamoate (250 mg) as the active ingredient. It works in the human body in the following manner:

Pyrantel pamoate acts as a depolarising neuromuscular blocking agent, causing continuous muscle contraction in the worms. This leads to paralysis, which immobilises them.
Once the worms are paralysed, they get expelled from your body through your stool.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while taking Nemocid Suspension if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Exercise caution while breastfeeding if you are taking this medicine. Always consult your doctor before starting this medicine.

Alcohol

It is best to avoid alcohol consumption while on this medication to prevent any unwanted side effects like dizziness or drowsiness. Always consult your doctor regarding alcohol intake.

Liver

If you have liver problems, it's vital to exercise caution and consult your doctor before taking this suspension. Your doctor might monitor your condition closely to check for any potential complications.

Kidney

People with kidney problems should exercise caution when taking the medicine. Always consult your doctor before starting this suspension.

Using Machines & Driving

Nemocid Suspension might cause dizziness and drowsiness in some individuals. Avoid driving or operating heavy machinery until you know how the medicine affects you.

Allergy

Avoid using the medicine if you have a known allergy to pyrantel pamoate or any other ingredients in the suspension. Always discuss your allergies with your doctor.

Children

Nemocid Suspension is not recommended for children under 2 years of age. For older children, always give the medicine under medical supervision and follow weight-based dosing strictly.

Older Patients

Elderly patients, especially those with liver or kidney issues, should take the medicine under medical supervision as they may be more susceptible to its side effects. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Nemocid Suspension may interact with the following medications:

Piperazine-based medicines: Medicines such as vermizole or antepar can reduce the effectiveness of Nemocid Suspension due to their antagonistic effects. Therefore, it's contraindicated to use them together.
Bronchodilators: Medicines like theophylline can interact with the suspension, leading to increased levels of theophylline in your body.

Drug-Food Interactions

Nemocid Suspension may interact with certain foods, such as:

High-fat meals: Foods high in fats like dairy products, whole eggs, and fatty fish can decrease the absorption of pyrantel pamoate.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Nemocid Suspension may interact with the following diseases:

Anaemia: The medicine should be used cautiously in anaemic or malnourished patients.
Liver disease: If you have liver disease, be cautious when taking the medicine since it might affect how it works in your body.

Daily Dose

The daily dose of Nemocid Suspension should be taken as advised by your doctor. This dosage may vary depending on factors such as the severity of your condition and how you respond to the medicine.

Over Dose

An overdose of the medicine could lead to symptoms like nausea, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, dizziness, and headache. If these symptoms persist or worsen after an accidental overdose, inform your doctor.

Missed Dose

If you forget to take the medicine at the scheduled time, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it's nearly time for your next dose, skip the missed one and continue with your regular schedule. Do not increase the dose without consulting with your doctor.

Store Nemocid Suspension at room temperature, ideally below 30°C.
Keep it away from light and moisture.
Do not place it in the fridge or freezer.
Make sure the bottle is tightly closed when not in use.
Always ensure that the suspension is out of the children's reach.
Use it before the expiry date mentioned on the package.

Encourage your child to practise good personal hygiene, especially hand washing before eating and after using the loo. This can help prevent reinfection with worms.
Ensure you consume a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to promote a healthy gut environment less conducive to worm survival.
