Oral amoxicillin in acute uncomplicated gonorrhea.
Year: 1974
Type: article
Abstract: Of 53 patients with acute uncomplicated gonorrhea treated with amoxicillin 2 g and probenecid 1 g orally as a single administration, six failed to return for follow-up examination, 10 developed postgonococcal urethritis and one was a treatment failure. The remainder achieved symptomatic cure in an average of 2.3 days. Adverse drug effects were infrequent, mild and transient. We conclude that this dose of amoxicillin and probenecid is a safe and effective treatment regimen.
