 1  Parasite, cryptosporidium I contracted a parasite through the tap water system. This medication is expensive. My copay was $320 for two rounds of this and I got the generic. It did not kill the parasite. It also gave me worse diarrhea. F 54 3 days
500 2X day

 5  C-diff none My GI doctor gave me Alinia after recurrence of C-diff following a round of Vanco. I more or less refused to take Flagyl, because of the horrible side effects. Doctor says it is "cutting edge" to prescribe Alinia for C-diff. The research is very recent, but it suggests Alinia is just as effective as Flagyl or Vanco. My diarrhea stopped in two days, and I feel fine. F 68 10 days
500 mg 2X day
