Nitazoxanide (NTZ) is a broadly applicable antiparasitic compound that is rapidly metabolized to tizaxonide whereupon it enters cells and inhibits pyruvate-ferredoxin oxidoreductase.{17926} NTZ demonstrates IC50 values of 2.5 and 10 µM for Giardia and Cryptosporidium, respectively. Additionally, NTZ kills replicating and nonreplicating M. tuberculosis with an IC50 value of 1 µM, while seemingly evading the development of resistance.{17926}
