Doxycycline is a common alternative to azithromycin. It’s a tetracycline antibiotic often prescribed for similar infections. A doctor will determine the appropriate dosage and duration.
Consider a course of minocycline. This tetracycline antibiotic also shows effectiveness against Ureaplasma. Always follow your doctor’s instructions regarding dosage and treatment length.
Ureaplasma infections sometimes resolve with supportive care alone, improving the immune system’s ability to fight the infection. This approach may involve focusing on nutrition, sleep, and stress reduction techniques. However, this should be discussed with a physician and is rarely sufficient on its own.
In persistent or recurrent cases, a second course of antibiotics, possibly a different class, might be necessary. This decision requires a medical professional’s assessment, including potential testing for antibiotic resistance.
Important Note: Self-treating Ureaplasma is risky. Always consult a healthcare provider for diagnosis and a personalized treatment plan. They can perform necessary tests to confirm the diagnosis and determine the best course of action based on your specific situation and potential co-infections.
