How Does Ovex Work
When looking for Ovex Threadworm Treatment or Ovex Worming Tablets Online consider the banana flavoured version.
Here is a quick rundown on “How does Ovex work?”
Ovex threadworm tablets and suspension contain the active ingredient called Mebendazole, which belongs to a group of medicines called anthelmintic.
Mebendazole works by preventing the worms from being able to absorb sugars. These sugars are essential to their survival, therefore limiting or completely getting rid of the absorption of sugars helps deplete the energy stores of the worms. This eventually leads to the worms dying within a few days. Once dead, the worms are then removed from the body by going through the gut and into the persons stool.
However, this treatment only kills the adult worms and their eggs, so it’s important to treat the whole family. During or after the treatment it is also recommended to keep your hygiene meticulous to avoid swallowing any new eggs which can cause a new infection.
This is how does Ovex works and how to avoid reinfection. You can buy Ovex UK via My Pharmacy.

How Long Does Ovex Take to Work
We are often asked the question “How long does Ovex take to work?”
With Mebendazole being the main active ingredient included in Ovex Threadworm Medicine it may take up to a couple of days for the worms to die. Immediate relief is impossible and you may still notice worms or itching even after taking the Ovex Threadworm Medicine.
This is because of Mebendazole stopping the worms from feeding off of sugars (glucose), which causes the worms to die of starvation.
How long does Ovex take to work? Not very long and you could be rid of any worm infection within a couple of days.
