Tick Borne Illnesses in Michigan
| Lyme disease, Tularemia, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF), and Ehrlichiosis are all treatable with antibiotics. Patients and domestic animals treated in the early stages with short courses of antibiotics usually recover rapidly and completely. Several commonly-used antibiotics, such as the tetracyclines, are particularly effective in the treatment of these diseases. Infectious disease physicians are usually the most knowledgeable about treatment options. |
