Interesting Shroom. Alinia is the generic name for Nitazoxinide and this is one of the drugs my Dr. advised that I take for Babesia. I'm very reluctant because it's in the same class as metronidazole - something I took a very long time ago for H. Pylori - and had horrible side effects. Supposedly nitazoxinide is evem more effective than metronidazole but without the side effects, or at least substantially reduced. Let us know how it works out for you.
