Abstract

An account is given of the results of treating non-dysenteric intestinal amoebiasis with some of the newer drugs and the results compared with those achieved by using E.B.I. It is thought that E.B.I., diloxanide furoate and paromomycin are all extremely effective and of approximately equal merit from a therapeutic standpoint. Diloxanide furoate is the cheapest and best tolerated and should be used to treat co-operative ambulant out-patients. The paromomycin course is the shortest and so should be used for the less co-operative person who requires in-patient treatment.
