Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello,
Welcome to HealthcareMagic. Even if you are Giardia positive, if you are just a cyst passer and not symptomatic, generally it does not need treatment. However, if you have not undergone any antibiotic regime, even when you had symptoms , that case you may take a course of metronidazole.
Take care.
