It's very rare for a 5 month old baby to have worms in stool. You need to give the medicine as advised. Get a routine stool test done as well to diagnose the type of worms in stool. More importantly, hand hygiene has to be maintained.

Are you sure it was worms in stool as it is very unlikely for a baby of 5 months to pass worms in stool. My advise would be to get a routine stool exam. Done if there is any doubt.

Have you seen the worm passing along with stool. This is because I have rarely seen worms in this age group. If yes give zentel 5 once stat in night only. Stop bootle feeding, practice more hygenic process. Worm infestation rare before 1 year of age.
