Classification

Meningitis could be classified to two main groups based on etiology:

Infectious
Non-infectious

Infectious meningitis

Infectious meningitis may be classified as the following algorithm based on chronicity of symptoms.

Infectious Meningitis

Viral

Bacterial

Fungal

Acute

Chronic

Recurrent

Acute

Subacute

Chronic

Recurrent

Non-infectious meningitis

Systemic illnesses, such as malignancies and connective tissue diseases (e.g. sarcoidosis, SLE, and wegener's) may involve meninges in their course and present as chronic meningitis.

Certain drugs may cause meningeal irritation and resemble as meningitis including:

Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs
Intravenous immunoglobulin
Intrathecal agents
certain antibiotics (eg, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole)
