Abstract

Antimicrobial treatment of acute infection caused by verocytotoxin toxin-producing Escherichia coli (VTEC) is controversial due to risk of inducing haemolytic uraemic syndrome. We review the treatment of 9 persons who experienced serious social problems due to prolonged, asymptomatic carriage of non-O157 VTEC. Eradication of VTEC was successful and without complications.
