Tizoxanide(Cat No.:I002266)is an active metabolite of tizoxanide, a broad-spectrum antiparasitic agent used primarily for the treatment of gastrointestinal infections caused by Entamoeba histolytica, Giardia lamblia, and Cryptosporidium parvum. It works by inhibiting the anaerobic energy metabolism of protozoa, leading to their death. Tizoxanide is also effective against certain bacterial infections. It is commonly used in the treatment of conditions like amoebiasis and giardiasis. As an oral medication, tizoxanide demonstrates favorable pharmacokinetics and has minimal side effects, making it a reliable option in parasitic infection management.
