Giardiasis is the most prevalent intestinal parasitic disease in the United States. Most cases can be diagnosed by a single stool examination. However, in periodic cyst excretors, cysts may not be detected unless repeated stool examinations are performed.

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1961
Giardiasis is caused by a protozoan flagellate, Giardia lamblia. Although Barraquer 1 associated this organism with certain lesions of the eye in 1938, there have been few reports since that time. Braley and Hamilton 2 in 1956 associated another protozoan, Entamoeba histolytica with macular lesions of the eye. A similar case was reported by us.

Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2005
Tinidazole is the first-line drug treatment of giardiasis, as it requires only a single dose to cure infection in most individuals. The related drug metronidazole is as effective, but it requires 5 to 7 days of three times a day therapy. Nitazoxanide appears in limited studies to be as effective as tinidazole or metronidazole, and it does not have the ...

The Nurse Practitioner, 1986
Giardiasis is the number one parasite-caused gastrointestinal illness in the United States. It can be acquired through various water sources or the fecal-oral route. The detection and treatment of giardiasis can be difficult. Nurse practitioners, as primary health care providers, often see patients presenting with gastrointestinal complaints.

The epidemiology of giardiasis
Parasitology Today, 1985Giardiasis is now known to occur not only endemically, but also as an epidemic disease spread primarily via drinking water. Giardia from different animals, although morphologically indistinguishable, vary in host specificity. This raises the possibility that lower animals may harbour representatives of this genus which are transmissible to humans.

Giardia infection was believed responsible for chronic diarrhea, weight loss, lethargy, inappetence, and dermatitis in a 4-year-old Thoroughbred horse. Fecal cysts were detected by the zinc sulfate centrifugal flotation method. All clinical signs resolved upon treatment with metronidazole suspension (5 mg/kg body weight per os, TID for 10 days).

Very effective treatment for giardiasis is available. There is little to choose in efficacy between the major drugs I have mentioned, used at optimum dosage, but mepacrine probably has a higher frequency of unwanted effects than many of the newer drugs, and the required duration of treatment is longer.

Giardiasis in pregnancy can be a debilitating disease with threatens the well-being of mother and fetus, as illustrated by three cases. The usual therapeutic agents are contraindicated in pregnancy. Paromomycin, an oral, poorly absorbed aminoglycoside, is an alternate, potentially less toxic agent for treatment of symptomatic giardiasis in pregnancy ...
