Successful treatment with nitazoxanide of Enterocytozoon bieneusi microsporidiosis in a patient with AIDS.

A Bicart-Sée1, P Massip, M D Linas, A Datry.   

Abstract

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.
