What is the best treatment for primary syphilis?

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: The evidence strongly supports benzathine penicillin G, administered as a single dose of 2.4 million units intramuscularly, as the best treatment for primary syphilis. Alternatives such as doxycycline are available for those allergic to penicillin, but their efficacy is slightly inferior.
