Cryptosporidium species gastroenteritis in adults with HIV infection

For treatment of Cryptosporidium species gastroenteritis, see Cryptosporidium species infection.

In patients with newly diagnosed HIV, exclude other infections before starting antiretroviral therapy for HIV infection. For patients with HIV and Cryptosporidium species gastroenteritis but no other infection, start antiretroviral therapy as soon as possible (see Initial antiretroviral therapy for HIV infection in adults).
