How long will it take to get rid of the tape worms after medication?
Tapeworm medication usually works quickly and effectively. Most people will pass the tapeworm within 24 to 48 hours after taking the medication. However, it can take up to a week for the tapeworm to be completely eliminated from the body.
In some cases, a second dose of medication may be necessary to kill any remaining tapeworms. If you do not pass the tapeworm after taking the medication, it is important to see a doctor to make sure that the tapeworm has been eliminated.
