A retrospective propensity score-matched case-control study was performed for patients who presented with complicated scrub typhus and were treated with doxycycline or azithromycin between 2001 and 2011. Data on comorbidities, clinical manifestations, laboratory studies, treatments, and outcomes were extracted for analysis. The clinical characteristics and outcomes of the azithromycin-treated group (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 73) were compared to those of the doxycycline-treated group (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 108). Of 181 patients, 73 from each group were matched by propensity scores. There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics between the matched groups. The treatment success and survival rates were not significantly different (89% [65\/73 patients] versus 96% [70\/73 patients] and 96% [70\/73 patients] versus 96% [70\/73 patients], respectively [\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &gt; 0.05]).
