Our Service

Bridging the Gap in Babesiosis Care

Babesiosis is a tick-borne parasitic infection caused by Babesia species, transmitted by the same Ixodes ticks responsible for Lyme disease. It is an increasingly recognised condition across the UK and Europe as tick habitats continue to expand with changing climate patterns.

The condition is frequently under-diagnosed due to its variable clinical presentation — ranging from mild flu-like illness to severe haemolytic anaemia, particularly in immunocompromised or asplenic patients. Co-infection with Lyme disease is common and can complicate both diagnosis and treatment selection.

Effective treatment requires access to specialist antiprotozoal regimens that are not routinely stocked. Sourcing these medicines through standard NHS supply channels is slow, unreliable, or simply not possible — leaving both clinician and patient without options.

Consistent Stock

We maintain ready-to-dispense stock of specialist antiprotozoals including unlicensed 'specials', removing supply uncertainty from your clinical workflow.
