I. EVIDENCE ALERT
Medical Treatment for Botulism - Authors: Chalk C, Benstead T, Keezer M
CONCLUSIONS: There is good evidence supporting the use of human-derived botulinum immune globulin in infant intestinal botulism. A single randomized controlled trial demonstrated significant decreases in the duration of hospitalization, mechanical ventilation and tube or parenteral feeding among treated patients. Our search did not reveal any evidence examining the use of other medical treatments including serum trivalent botulism antitoxin.
