Product Details

Pyrantrin 125mg 6 Tablets: Effective Deworming Solution

Pyrantrin 125mg is a widely used anthelmintic (worm expeller) medication in Nigeria, manufactured by the reputable Neimeth International Pharmaceuticals Plc. Formulated with Pyrantel Pamoate, it is specifically designed to treat common intestinal parasitic infections such as roundworms, pinworms, and hookworms.

Why Choose Pyrantrin for Deworming?

Intestinal worms can cause fatigue, malnutrition, and stomach discomfort. Pyrantrin provides a reliable way to maintain your health:

  • Fast-Acting Relief: It works as a depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent, paralyzing worms so they can be naturally expelled during bowel movements.
  • Convenient Single Dose: Most treatments require just one administration.
  • No Purging Required: Unlike older deworming methods, you don't need to fast or use laxatives (purging) before or after taking Pyrantrin.
  • Trusted Quality: A NAFDAC-registered product (Reg. No. 04-7511) from one of Nigeria’s top pharmaceutical firms.

Pyrantrin 125mg Dosage for Adults

One of the most frequent questions Nigerians ask is: "Can I take 6 tablets of Pyrantrin at once?"

For many adults, the answer is Yes. The standard dosage for Pyrantrin is 10mg per kilogram (10mg/kg) of body weight. For an average adult weighing between 63kg and 75kg, a single dose of 6 tablets (750mg) is recommended.

Dosage Guide by Weight:

  • 63kg – 75kg: 6 tablets (750mg) as a single dose.
  • 76kg – 88kg: 7 tablets (875mg) as a single dose.
  • Over 89kg: 8 tablets (1000mg) as a single dose.

Note: Always consult with a GoMed pharmacist to confirm the right dosage for your specific weight and health status.

Administration and Safety

Pyrantrin tablets can be taken with or without food at any time of the day. While generally safe, some users may experience mild side effects like nausea or abdominal cramps. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please speak with a doctor before deworming.
