Successful Treatment with Nitazoxanide of Enterocytozoon bieneusi Microsporidiosis in a Patient with AIDS
2000
A patient with AIDS and chronic diarrhea caused by Enterocytozoon bieneusi was successfully treated with nitazoxanide, producing a complete clinical and parasitological response, while off of antiviral therapy. This suggests that nitazoxanide may be effective in treating microsporidiosis caused by E. bieneusi, a disease for which there is no established treatment.
