    They said he didn't need another follow-up after the treatment, no fecal was done after the course was completed. She said he wouldn't be regurgitating unless the hookworm infestation was high. But, maybe it is.

    I never really though about how it works. But I just read that Metronidazole can block the reproductive cycle of adult worms, but I didn't see anything about it killing the oocysts. Maybe I'm wrong.

    Or... maybe he did catch something.
