Generally, 2-year-olds are ready to take worming pills. The exact need to take worming medicine depends on whether there are parasites in the child’s intestines. Not all 2-year-olds have to take worming pills. If the child has symptoms such as poor appetite, abdominal pain, and has the habit of eating raw food, unclean surroundings or does not have healthy hand hygiene habits, he or she can take some child-friendly worming pills at this time. In some cases, parasites may even be seen in the feces, in which case the child should go to the hospital and take the appropriate worming medicine. If the child does not have the above symptoms and does not eat unhygienic food, there is no need to take worming medicine. Because all medications have certain side effects, they should be used in strict accordance with medical advice.
