If given 14 days doxycycline for syphilis exposure instead of penicillin due to local drug shortage, can this regimen still prevent ever being infectious if started about a week before earliest possible chancre onset?
I realize doxycycline for 2 weeks 2x100mg/day can treat primary syphilis. But what about incubating syphilis (before any symptoms present)? Could starting 10 days of doxycycline (2x100mg/day) within 24-48hrs post exposure prevent infection?
Can taking doxycycline be effective for post exposure prevention treatment after 24 hours for syphilis?
Hi, would taking 1 week of Doxycycline x2 100mg a day taken 72 hours after potential exposure help to prevent Syphilis? Thanks in advance?
If Im taking doxycycline as post exposure prophylaxis before symptoms, is it possible for a chancre to form 7 days into the treatment? Im worried what I thought was a cut on my lip is the start of a chancre?
