[Therapy problems of Lyme borreliosis].
The treatment of the various stages of Lyme Borreliosis is discussed in detail: for the first stage Phenoxymethylpenicilline or Doxycyclin are to be recommended. For the second stage either high dose i.v. Penicillin G or, even better, Ceftriaxone 1 g i.v.b.i.d. should be recommended. Due to the high rate of treatment failure with Penicillin G in third stage Lyme Borreliosis Ceftriaxone has to be given in these instances. A further alternative might be Imipenem i.v.
