A member asked:
I recently took antibiotics for possible std. does a shot of penicillin, a shot of ceftriaxone and azithromycin treat oral gonorrhea? or no?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: A shot of Ceftriaxone most of the times will cure oral Gonorrhea.Azithromycine is usually given for co existing infection with Chlamydia.Penicillin is no more used to treat Gonorrhea due to bacterial resistance and is not effective in majority of cases

Tested negative(but also treated w/ Ceftraxione inj and Azithro) for gonorrhea/chlaym 4 weeks ago. Now on Bactrim DS for epididtymitis, would a retest to make sure I'm 100% STD free be skewed by my current antibiotics & result in inaccurate results?
How long after 1 g of zithromax and a shot of rocephin (ceftriaxone) should i wait before get retested for gonorrhea and chlyamedia? (My doctor didn't know which it was and chose to treat for both).
Had discharge, doc tests for Gonorrhea & chlamydia. Both negative.Treated for both anyway. Dr said urethritis. Will azithromycin & cefTRIAXone stop it?
