Ovex Family Pack Tablets
What is Ovex Family Pack?
Ovex Family Pack Tablets is a single-dose treatment for threadworms for the whole family. Threadworm is contagious, and when one person in your family has it, it can spread to the rest of your family quickly. This is why it is advisable you treat the family as soon as possible.
Threadworm, or pinworm, is an infection that affects your digestive system. This happens when you come into contact with threadworm eggs and swallow them. The eggs will then hatch into tiny, thread-like worms in your gut and begin to lay more eggs around your anus.

What is the active ingredient in Ovex Family Pack and how does it work to treat threadworm?
The active ingredient in Ovex is Mebendazole. Mebendazole is a type of medication called an ‘anthelmintic’, which means it treats threadworms by depriving the worms in your system of the sugars they need to survive. You should start to see an improvement in your symptoms within a few days after taking Ovex as the worms begin to die out.
