Background Information on Lyme Disease
Traditional Treatment
People treated with appropriate antibiotics in the early stages of Lyme disease usually recover rapidly and completely. The problem is I mine went undiagnosed for years. Even thought I had a classic bullseye rash and was really sick when we found the rash.
Antibiotics commonly used for oral treatment include doxycycline, amoxicillin, or cefuroxime axetil. People with certain neurological or cardiac forms of illness may require intravenous treatment with antibiotics such as ceftriaxone or penicillin.
Treatment regimens listed in the following table are for localized (early) Lyme disease. See references below (Hu 2016; Sanchez 2016) for treatment of patients with disseminated (late) Lyme disease. These regimens are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted depending on a person’s age, medical history, underlying health conditions, pregnancy status, or allergies.
