Overview
Medical Therapy
- The mainstay medical therapy for tick-borne encephalitis is [Phosphrenyl]] treatment.
- Phosphrenyl treatment including both a therapeutic and prophylactic agent for TBEinterferon treatment.
- This treatment may be likened to interferon treatment for Hepatitis C.
- Antibiotic treatment may be necessary for potential tick-borne co-infections, such as phytotherapy.[1][2][3]
Antibiotics
- Although the TBE virus cannot be eradicated from the body, it can be inactivated. It can also be activated.[4]
- Certain antibiotics activate the TBE virus while others have no effect.
- TBE virus may be a coinfection with a Borrelia Burgdorferi infection, Lyme disease, which needs treatment with antibiotics.
- The Russians studied this matter for years and their findings were as follows: gentamicin exerts no activating effect while streptomycin and ten other antibiotics activate the virus. [5]
Homeopathic
- They also found that some herbs inactivated the TBE virus almost completely in mice, as follows: ledum, motherwort and blackcurrant.[6][7]
