If you test positive for brucellosis, your doctor will most likely prescribe antibiotics.
The antibiotics doxycycline (Vibramycin) and rifampin (Rifadin) are often prescribed together for at least six to eight weeks.
Be sure to tell your doctor if you’re:
- Pregnant
- Allergic to doxycycline or rifampin
- Immunosuppressed due to a drug or medical condition
Prevention of Brucellosis
Brucellosis is best prevented by avoiding undercooked meat and unpasteurized dairy products, including cheese, milk, and ice cream.
