What is the Drug of Choice for Treating Borrelia Infections

Question

What is the drug of choice for treating Borrelia infections?
A) Aminoglycosides
B) Macrolides
C) Tetracyclines
D) Penicillins

Accepted Answer

Tetracyclines are the drug of choice for treating Borrelia infections, including Lyme disease. They are effective against both early and late stages of the disease and have good tissue penetration. Macrolides and penicillins may be used as alternative treatments, but aminoglycosides are not effective against Borrelia.
