In vitro antiamebic efficacy of clinically relevant drugs. HM1:IMSS E. histolytica trophozoites (104/mL) were cultured in complete supplemented with drug for 72 hours. Cell numbers were counted on a hemocytometer and scored as the percentage growth relative to ameba grown in unsupplemented media. Data represent three counts of duplicated cultures ± standard deviation (SD). Isolated error bars indicate positive control (initial count) and negative control (no drug) ± SD. *P ≤ 0.05.
