I have hookworm infection

Published by

I have hookworm infection which has refused to go away after two years of treatment. I have visited many doctors and taken all sorts of worm medications all to no avail. Kindly let me know the kind of drugs I can use to disinfect myself.

You did not indicate how you were able to confirm that you have Hookworm infection. The best way to know if you actually have Hookworm Infection is to send a sample of your stool for Laboratory examination. Apart from knowing that you have a Hookworm Infection, the Laboratory test will also confirm the specific drug that can clear the infection. Once this is done, the next thing is for you to use the prescribed drug to clear the infection.
