How long rocephin (ceftriaxone) injection last? gonorrhea or chlamydia.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ceftriaxone is: used to treat gonorrhea as a single injection dose. Dual therapy for gonococcal infections (i.e., with ceftriaxone in a single intramuscular dose, in combination with either azithromycin or doxycycline) is now recommended to also treat Chlamydia.
