Treatments and drugs
By Mayo Clinic staffIf it's suspected that you have ehrlichiosis, your doctor will likely give you a prescription for an antibiotic such as tetracycline or doxycycline. You'll generally take the antibiotics for seven to 10 days and should see the signs and symptoms subside. Your doctor may have you take antibiotics for a longer period if you're at risk of contracting Lyme disease as well.
