Resistance of Blastocystis hominis cysts to metronidazole.

V Zaman1, M Zaki.   

Abstract

Blastocystis hominis cysts concentrated from faeces were resistant to metronidazole up to a concentration of 5 mg/ml. A cysticidal drug is therefore needed for radical treatment, to avoid relapse and to prevent transmission.
