No, it is not recommended to give Pyrantelum to a 14-year-old child with stomach ulcers. Pyrantelum is an antiparasitic medicine that can irritate or worsen the symptoms of a stomach ulcer. Administration of Pyrantelum in this situation could exacerbate the symptoms associated with gastric ulcers and delay treatment. Continue to treat the ulcer as directed by your doctor.
If you want to give your child Pyrantelum, I encourage you to consult your doctor, who can give you more personalized advice. If you do not have the opportunity to take advantage of the advice, I am attaching a link to the online teleconsultation:
