A member asked:
What is the most effective orally administered treatment regimen for gonorrhea for an indian male who contracts the infection on mainland china?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Resistant Gonorrhea: In general this will come down to whether there is the new drug resistant form of gonorrhea being found in china as it is in many other parts of the world. If there is the new drug resistant gonorrhea there then there are no oral medications that work, but Ceftriaxone is used as an injection in this situation.
