Current recommendations say that in children over 6 months of age with a body weight of more than 10 kg, a whole bottle of Zentel is given at one time with a possible recommendation for repetition after 2 weeks in the absence of improvement. Therefore, if your child meets these conditions, there is no reason to worry. I would also like to add that in the leaflet for the zentel drug you will read that the drug should be administered only from the age of 2 in a single dose of 20 ml (400 mg), i.e. the whole bottle. I understand your reasons for concern, but I assure you that the doctor prescribing the drug was guided by the latest knowledge and guidelines from the scientific literature, which in this case does not coincide with the information placed years ago in the leaflet. I am attaching an article that may be of interest to you: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/wszy-owsiki-i-inne-przedszkolne-pasozyty
