How Can Reactive TPHA Be Treated?
Hello, Based on your data, you are positive for syphilis even in the second test because this is a high titer of it. Usually, the titer should be negative or lower than 1:160 to consider free of syphilis. But, I think that it is a good news that in the second test the titer is lower than before. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr Monika Dede, Infectious Diseases Specialis
