Removing tapeworm(s) is usually not a 1-2 day project. Depending on your infection, might take a while or it might not. Die off can be bad, again depending on your infection. You can be in bed with fever or just feel a little nausea. I would plan on 2 weeks to start with, just to be sure. You can try pyrantel pamoate beforehand, see if that hrlps. I have heard some Tapeworms do release on that. Pyrantel can be done on a weekend. I would follow up with praziquantel to be sure i have got them all.
