Résumé

The current postexposure prophylaxis regimen for tick-borne relapsing fever (TBRF) consists of 5 days' doxycycline. In this observational study of 77 spelunkers at high risk for TBRF, a single dose of 100 mg doxycycline taken up to 72 hours after exposure to ticks was 100% effective in preventing the disease.
