Yes. One 100mg dose is sufficient to kill pinwoms (enterobius). It should be followed by a second dose of 100mg 15-21 days later to ensure reinfection is avoided, as it does not kill pinworm eggs. 100mg taken 3 times a day for 3 days is effective against larger nematodes, but only marginally effective against tapeworms. It is available over the counter for human use in Europe under the brand names of Fluvermal in 100mg tablets or 20mg/ml oral solution.
