Antibiotics are generally not effective against Giardia, a parasitic infection caused by the Giardia lamblia organism. The primary treatment for giardiasis involves antiprotozoal medications, such as metronidazole or tinidazole, which specifically target the parasite. While antibiotics can treat bacterial infections, they do not have an impact on protozoan parasites like Giardia. Therefore, it's important to use the appropriate medication for effective treatment.
