Case Report of Severe Chlamydia psittaci Pneumonia Treated with Omadacycline.

The clinical severity of Chlamydia psittaci infection ranges from asymptomatic to severe pneumonia. Diagnosis poses challenges due to its similarity to other respiratory infections. Treatment includes tetracyclines, macrolides, and fluoroquinolones, with limited evidence on the efficacy of omadacycline. We report a case of an 86-year-old male with severe psittacosis treated with omadacycline, resulting in significant improvement. This highlights the necessity for further research on omadacycline's role in psittacosis treatment.
