A member asked:
I have gonorrhea. ive taken 1.5 g of arithromycin, but dont have cefixime. will this be enough to cure?

Not reliable: Azithromycin in this dose usually would work, but it's not reliable. Cefixime + azithromycin is better, but even that isn't recommended any more. You should also have a shot ceftriaxone. Gonorrhea is dangerous. Without proper treatment, it can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease (PID, fallopian tube infection), which can make you infertile. Stop screwing around with this: see a doctor ASAP.
