Article Synopsis
  • Diloxanide is an effective treatment for asymptomatic amoebiasis, but its exact mechanism of action is not well understood despite its structural similarities to chloramphenicol.
  • It operates by inhibiting protein synthesis in the E. histolytica parasite, preventing the formation of more virulent cysts, and achieving a parasite clearance rate of 81-96%.
  • The study calls for further research into diloxanide's structure-activity relationship and suggests exploring new drug formulations and improved diagnostic methods to enhance treatment efficacy and reduce the risk of relapse.
