In UW, they say that the main stay for ttt of reactive arthritis is NSAIDS (I agree). Then add a TETRACYCLINE (completely disagree) for chlamydia .. If i remember right, Dr Conrad stated never to choose Tetracycline, always choose doxycycline?? I guess ill stick to that but can anyone confirm this??? & what about Campylobacter jeuj, do we still treat it with ciprofl or new flouroq??
