''[[C piliforme]]'' has been reported to be susceptible to penicillin, tetracycline, erythromycin, and streptomycin in studies using infected embryonated eggs. High dose sodium penicillin and trimethoprim sulpadiazine have been used successfully to treat foals with Tyzzer's disease. Parenteral nutrition is particularly important in affected animals due to a reduction in hepatic metabolism. Other supportive treatment may include aggressive fluid therapy with dextrose and control of seizure activity using a sedative such as xylazine.
