Brief Answer:
Dual regimen

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for the query

Pseudomonas is a serious infection and it requires treatment with dual antibiotics. I usually treat with meropenem and ciproflox for a period of 14 days. Other available options are cefipime, ceftazidime and aztreonam. Pipercillin with tazobactum can also
be used.
Please speak to your doctor about this, you will require admission and treatment, it cannot be treated with oral antibiotics

I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back to me

Regards
