A text on the effect of Nitazoxanide on several parasites.
Do you all think Nitazoxanide is not a good choice for treating entamoeba histolytica? Do you all think Tinidazole is a better choice than Nitazoxanide?
This is a text I found in

Alinia (nitazoxanide) for a whole range of parasites.
In his definitive study, Dr. Stuppy MD, of Los Angeles, found one treatment, above all others, was over 98% effective against all the above listed pathogens. That was Alinia (generic nitazoxanide). In fact his hit rate was as follows:
Cryptosporidium parvum, reduced by 99%,
Amoeba histolytica, down by 100%,
Giadria lamblia, 98%
Blastocystis hominis, 96%
Ascaris lumbricoides, 90% (difficult one, that)
Clostridium difficile, down 100%,
T. solium, 100%
T. spiralis, 100%
Nitazoxanide is highly effective in treating/eradicating gastrointestinal pathogens; this includes parasites, helminths, protozoa, and pathologic bacteria.
Alinia is available on prescription in the US (around $18 a capsule) but I feel bound to point out you can get the generic compound (nitazoxanide) in Mexico far cheaper!
The dosage Dr. Stuppy used was 1 gram, twice daily, for two weeks. This is heavy medication.
Once cleared, I suggest readers consider using it rather differently, as a “worming pill,” just like we do for cats and dogs. Take 1 gram, twice a day, for three days. Repeat every six months. But don’t forget to fix the terrain, otherwise
parasites will all come back!
