The comparison included two aspects, the first; aspect is knowing the most important side effects that arise after up taking these two treatments independently (dose, adverse effects, pharmacokinetics, interactions), while the second; aspect of the comparison included studying the most important significant differences between the two treatments that were counted by some through statistical tests, this is when counting the patients who used these two drugs for treatment in a single clinic according to the data recorded by the medical clinics for patients with giardia in Babylon. After microscopic examination of samples taken from infected patients, in the laboratory the giardiasis is clearly seen in the maturity stage in addition to the cystic phase. The total of the samples studied is (93 samples), of which (40 samples) were used with (Nitroimidazole) as a drug for treatment of giardiasis, while (53 samples) were used with (Albendazole) as a drug for treatment.
