Antibiotic study for ongoing lyme disease symptoms
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Infections clinical trials.
This study tests whether adding a second antibiotic, doxycycline, for a longer time helps people who still have symptoms after their first lyme disease treatment. It aims to see if this extra treatment reduces symptoms and improves quality of life.
