Entamoeba spp

A few salts of bismuth such as bismuth subcarbonate, subgallate, subnitrate and subsalicylate or milk of bismuth, find use in the treatment of nonspecific diarrhea and for skin protectants [9]. However, their use in the chemotherapy of parasitic diseases is limited. The only noteworthy example is glycobiarsol (Id), an anhydride of a bismuth oxide and phenylarsonic acid, which has been found to be active against Entamoeba and Trichomonas spp. [8]. 

Berberine possesses antimicrobial activity against bacterial [13, 94-96], fungal [97], protozoan [98, 99], and viral [100-102] infections. In vitro studies have shown that berberine is effective against Entamoeba histolytica, Giardia lamblia, Trichomonas vaginalis [98, 103], Candida spp. [97, 104], Plasmodium falciparum [99], Staphylococcus aureus [95, 105, 106], influenza virus [100], human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) [107], human cytomegalovirus [101], herpes simplex virus, [102] Chlamydia trachomatis [105], Helicobacter pylori [96], and Leish-mania donovani [99].
