Hi thanks for posting your query on health care magic.
Quinafamide is an effective drug ,very good against intestinal microbes and parasites particularly amoebiasis.

This is effective if he has documented parasitic infestations.but it safe to use quinafamide as a presumptive management.

I recommend your boyfriend to undergo upper gastrointestinal endoscopy to evaluate further.

Meawhile tab Pantop 40mg can be helpful.

Consult an expert Gastroenterologist for further assistance .
