Nitrazoxanide antibiotic - ADVICE PLEASE!!

[Guest guest]

Hello I am just about to start my son on a really strong antibiotic

(Nitazoxanide) to kill a nasty parasite he has. We tried the natural first and

the a less strong antibiotic with no effect :-(. I am nervous about the

Nitazoxanide as I have been warned it will make him feel really poorly for about

10 days. I am also concerned that it will damage his friendly gut flora and

cause a yeast/viral flare. He Is on Valtrex and fluconazole so hopefully that

will keep things in check. I plan to dose him 4 x daily with rotational

probiotics and give him milk thistle to support his liver but does anyone else

have any other advise supplement wise or practical?

Thanks in advance :-)
