Wrong treatment: This drug is a version of amoxicillin with clavulanic acid (Augmentin® is the main brand in the US). It is NOT reliable against gonorrhea. It probably won't cure you, but at the same time it might interfere with testing to know if treatment worked. See a doctor or clinic for proper treatment, which usually requies an injection of ceftriaxone plus either azithromycin or doxycycline. Good luck!
