Antiparasitic Treatment: Nitazoxanide powder is primarily used for the treatment of intestinal parasitic infections caused by protozoa such as Giardia lamblia and Cryptosporidium parvum.
Broad-Spectrum Activity: It exhibits activity against a wide range of parasites, including helminths and cestodes, making it a valuable option in certain cases of parasitic infestations.
Veterinary Use: In addition to human medicine, nitazoxanide powder also finds application in veterinary practices for treating similar parasitic infections in animals.
Research Purposes: It is also used in research settings to study parasite biology, drug resistance, and potential new therapeutic indications.
Parasite Elimination: Nitazoxanide functions by disrupting the energy metabolism and protein synthesis of parasitic organisms, leading to their elimination from the host.
Selective Toxicity: It exhibits selective toxicity towards parasites, minimizing adverse effects on the host's cells and tissues.
Immunomodulatory Effects: Recent studies suggest that nitazoxanide may also have immunomodulatory properties, enhancing the host's immune response against parasitic infections.
Microbiome Modulation: It can alter the gut microbiota composition, potentially influencing the parasitic load and host health outcomes.
