Back at Shaklee Australia.
Over 20 traditional Western herbal medicine herbs — wormwood and mugwort as lead vermifuges

The AU dosing: 2 tablets morning + 1 tablet evening, every day for 25 days, then 5 days off, then repeat. The 25-day cycle plus 5-day break is calibrated to the pinworm lifecycle (eggs hatch within 2–4 weeks), ensuring the repeat cycle addresses any newly hatched worms.

Pinworms in Australia: the most common intestinal parasite, and why the lifecycle matters for treatment
Enterobius vermicularis (pinworms, also called threadworms in Australia) infect an estimated 40–50% of children at some point and are readily passed to adults in the household. The lifecycle is the reason why treatment must be repeated: adult worms are killed by antiparasitic treatment, but the eggs they have already laid (primarily around the perianal area at night) can survive for weeks on surfaces and bedding. When those eggs are accidentally ingested, a new generation of worms develops — meaning a single treatment course that doesn’t account for the egg cycle will appear to have succeeded but will be followed by reinfection within 2–4 weeks.
Para Cleanse’s AU-specified 25-day protocol (followed by 5 days off, then repeat) is specifically designed around this lifecycle. Traditional Western herbal medicine has long used vermifuge herbs — particularly wormwood (Artemisia absinthium) and mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) — for intestinal parasite clearance. The 20+ herb formula also includes digestive tonic herbs that strengthen the intestinal environment during the cleanse.

| 20+ additional herbal and botanical ingredients | Comprehensive traditional formula including digestive tonic herbs that strengthen digestive function alongside the vermifuge herbs; check current AU label for full ingredient list |
How the 25-day herbal protocol works
Vermifuge herbs create an inhospitable environment for adult worms
Wormwood and mugwort’s bitter sesquiterpene lactones (including absinthin and artabsin) are toxic to intestinal parasites. Traditional Western herbal medicine uses these herbs to disrupt the intestinal environment that pinworms require to survive and reproduce.
25 days covers the mature worm lifecycle plus margin
The adult pinworm lifecycle (from ingested egg to egg-laying adult) takes approximately 2–4 weeks. The 25-day continuous protocol ensures that worms at all lifecycle stages present at the start of treatment are addressed within the treatment window.
Repeat after 5 days targets newly hatched worms from pre-treatment eggs
The 5-day gap allows the body to clear the herbs before the repeat 25-day course begins. The repeat cycle is specifically designed to catch any newly hatched worms from eggs that were already present before treatment started.
Digestive tonic herbs rebuild during the cleanse
The formula’s tonic herbs support digestive function during the cleanse period, helping to restore the gut environment to healthy function as the parasitic load is cleared.
The Para Cleanse protocol
Days 1–25 (first cycle)
2 tablets with morning meal + 1 tablet with evening meal every day for 25 consecutive days. Do not skip days.
Days 26–30 (rest period)
5-day break from the tablets. During this period, maintain strict hand hygiene and clean bedding and clothing to reduce the environmental egg load.
Days 31+ (repeat cycle)
Begin the second 25-day cycle. The 75-tablet pack provides enough tablets for one full initial cycle plus a significant portion of the repeat cycle.
Tips for Para Cleanse
Treat the whole household simultaneously
Pinworms spread readily through household contact. If one person in the household has pinworms, all household members should be treated simultaneously to avoid reinfection cycles within the house.
Daily bedding hygiene during treatment
Wash bedding and underwear in hot water daily during treatment. Pinworm eggs on surfaces are a primary reinfection source. Hand washing after toilet use and before eating is critical throughout the treatment period.
Pair with Modere Probiotic after completing both cycles
The 25-day herbal cleanse can disrupt gut flora as well as parasites. Following Para Cleanse with a course of Modere Probiotic helps restore beneficial gut bacteria and supports a healthy post-cleanse microbiome.
Safety
Western herbal medicine formula. Contains wormwood and mugwort.
Pregnancy. Wormwood and mugwort are contraindicated during pregnancy. Do not use if pregnant.
Breastfeeding. Not recommended during breastfeeding. Consult your GP.
Children. Check the current AU label for age-specific dosing. Pinworm treatment in young children may require adjusted doses.
Liver conditions. High-dose wormwood has historical associations with neurotoxicity (thujone content). The therapeutic doses in a standardised formula are designed to be safe, but if you have a liver condition, consult your GP before use.
Always read the label. If symptoms persist, consult your healthcare professional.
FAQ — Modere Para Cleanse Australia
What is Modere Para Cleanse?
A 75-tablet Western herbal medicine formula containing a concentrated blend of over 20 herbal and botanical ingredients. Traditional uses: helps clear pinworms and threadworms from the digestive system using traditional vermifuge herbs including wormwood and mugwort, while also acting as a tonic on the digestive system to strengthen digestive function.
What are pinworms/threadworms?
Enterobius vermicularis (pinworms/threadworms) are one of the most common intestinal parasites in Australia, particularly in children and adults who have contact with children. They are transmitted via the oral-faecal route and cause perianal itching, particularly at night when the female worm lays eggs.
What does the AU label say about dosing?
ADULTS: 2 tablets with the morning meal and 1 tablet with the evening meal, each day for 25 days. Discontinue for 5 days, then repeat. This 25-day on / 5-day off protocol is consistent with the lifecycle of pinworms (eggs hatch after approximately 2–4 weeks, so a repeat cycle addresses newly hatched worms).
Why more than 20 herbs?
The AU description states it contains a concentrated blend of over 20 herbal and botanical ingredients. Western herbal medicine traditionally uses synergistic multi-herb formulas for parasite cleansing — different herbs target different aspects of the parasitic environment in the gut.
Who is it for?
Adults (and children where specifically indicated on the AU label — always check) who have a diagnosed or suspected pinworm/threadworm infection, or who want traditional digestive tonic support.
