Botulism: Treatment
(Handbook of Diseases)

With food-borne illness, administration of botulinum antitoxin (available through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) is the treatment of choice. Infant botulism requires supportive care because neither antitoxin nor antibiotics are beneficial; human botulism immune globulin is experimental.

Clinical tip  Antibiotics and aminoglycosides shouldn’t be administered because they increase the risk of neuromuscular blockade. They should be used only to treat secondary infections.
