How to Treat Brucellosis


Many patients recover from brucellosis on their own. However, early diagnosis and treatment can reduce the risk of complications and infection. Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Treatment options include:

Antibiotics

Your doctor may prescribe one or more antibiotics (usually doxycycline and rifampin) to control and prevent relapses of brucellosis. Antibiotics are given for up to six weeks.
