Lyme Disease Prevention Measures -Nicole Forsberg, Lyme Disease Treatment Expert, Nurse Practitioner

- If an individual is going to participate in outdoor activities in tick infested areas for a protracted period of time (days or weeks), then some doctors and health care providers may prescribe antibiotics as a preventive measure.

Tick awareness, appropriate clothing in tick-infested areas and early removal of attached ticks remain the most important prevention measures.
