Even though Salmonella food poisoning is a bacterial infection, most practitioners do not treat simple cases with antibiotics.
| | Chloramphenicol is the antibiotic used to treat Salmonella poisoning. |
| | Ampicillin and trimethoprim-sulfonamide have been used successfully in the treatment of infections caused by chloramphenicol-resistant strains. |
| | Newer types of anibiotics, such as cephalosporin or quinolone, are also effective. |
| | These drugs can be given by mouth or through a needle in the vein (intravenously) for very ill patients. |
