Lyme Disease & Treatment Lyme disease is best treated in its early stages with the aid of antibiotics, which helps in reducing and stopping the infection. The common antibiotics that are used for the treatment are doxycycline, cefuroxime, and amoxicillin.

As per the Lyme specialist in Virginia, the course of the treatment generally lasts 2–3 weeks after which the infection should go away. The symptoms may take a little time to fade away. This is the case when it is treated at the earliest.
