Giardiasis

Richard R Babb. Postgrad Med. 1995 Aug.

Abstract

Preview Although infection with Giardia lamblia is common, identifying it can be a challenge. Laboratory testing is not always definitive, even in patients with characteristic gastrointestinal symptoms. Fortunately, antiprotozoal therapy is effective in most cases. In this article, Dr Babb discusses current diagnostic methods and outlines an effective approach to treatment.
