Anti-parasite medication is needed to kill the worms. Usually doctors prescribe mebendazole or pyrantel pamoate. Since pinworms are infectious, many times the whole family will have to be treated.

If you go to a doctor and are diagnosed with pinworms, they will give you a prescription for Vermox (otherwise known as mebendazole) or Albenza. Also, a good over the counter remedy is Reese's Pinworm Medicine(there are other brands available). Make sure to wash all the clothes and bedding.

The best herbal cure for a pinworm infection is Camomile. This can be taken in the form of a tea or you can buy capsules if the tea is unpleasant to your taste. To prevent a recurrance of the parasite, take a B complex containing folic acid or folate.
