Tizoxanide is an active metabolite of the antiparasitic nitazoxanide . Tizoxanide is formed from nitazoxanide via deacetylation of nitazoxanide in the stomach. It is active against M. tuberculosis (MIC = 16 μg/ml). It also reduces the growth of the disease-causing parasites L. mexicana and T. cruzi in vitro (IC50s = 6.2 and 17.5 μM, respectively), inhibits influenza A replication (EC50s = 0.3-1 μM), and inhibits hepatitis B and hepatitis C virus replication (EC50 = 0.15 μM for both).
