Avatar m tn So my question is this, What could my diagnosis be and how effective is Moxifloxacin (I have taken ofloxacin) as a treatment for STDs or Urethritis, especially in South East Asia?
Avatar m tn If you meant to say that you took Moxifloxacin, and you still have symptoms, it just means that you have multi drug resistance MG. Yes, there are STD’s in this country that are not known about AND MG is the culprit behind many undiagnosable urethritis/prostatitis issues. This is way more common than the doctors even know about. I’m not saying this to scare you, I’m saying this. because it’s the truth.
Avatar m tn doxycycline, azithromycin and moxifloxacin. The first two failed to clear my infection and now I have two days that I finished the moxifloxacin 400 mg( 10 days treatment) clearing my symptoms. My question is, Is it possible for the bacteria to reoccur after the moxifloxacin treatment? And if yes what other option are there?

Avatar n tn Having started the TB medication for a week we now wish to continue her treatment for UVEITIS . As I came to know that Steroid is the only option for treating Uveitis I am afraid of both (TB and Uveitis) the medicines that will add extra weights in her body. Any solution to that? Or any expert comment to help me.
Avatar f tn Cure rates with moxifloxacin are 100% According to some info I’ve found, and is used after Doxy and az. So id press to get moxifloxacin. moxifloxacin 400 mg daily for 7 to 14 days is the preferred antibiotic regimen.

867934 tn?1239492722 TB is notorious for causing weight/appetite loss, and when a person has active lung TB and swallows there sputum or it travels through the lymphatics it can spread to the GI tract.
Avatar f tn Though fair to say that it all started after an event of high risk protected sex which left me in guilt and anxiety. My provider has written a mantaux test which is for TB I think. I have had lungs TB 6 years back which got away after treatment. So will that affect the mantaux test? Also what can be reasons other than std and TB for genital pain and overall malaise. Though I still doubt herpes test.can anyone of u suggest what to do from here.I'm extremely tired of malaise and pain.
Avatar m tn Following treatment protocols you should be non-contagious, but the time period for this varies. This is a question solely for your treating physician. Remember than tb sputem can remain capable of causing an infection for months. I did extensive research on tb and have the studies from the 1920's. Never ever miss taking your medications. Keep dust down in the room and purchase an ultraviolet disinfectant unit. Ultraviolet light kills tb bacteria. That discovery won a Nobel prize in 1904.
Avatar n tn All symptoms are pointing to MAC not TB. We will be starting the antibiodic treatment for MAC next week. Could the swelling in the feet be tied to gout or rhemotoid arthritis? They are doing a blood test to rule out these conditions. The swelling and pain are getting worse so we hope the seroid works. Thanks again for that great information.
Avatar f tn However, as I now know there are multiple ones out there that have never been tested for. He had pain with urination and came up positive for mycoplasma genitallium. I have done doxy and azithromycin and still came up positive for mycoplasma genitallium and ureaplasma. my partner and I are finishing up 14 days on Moxi and I am still having cramping. My partner is still having testicular pain. So I’m guessing this didn’t work either.
Avatar m tn What did work was a combination of Moxifloxacin 400mg one per day for 10 days (in the morning), plus Rifampicin one pill per day for 10 days (at night). The combination of both of these together finally killed it!
Avatar n tn Since the likely recurrence of TB is only 10 percent and since active TB can be treated, what are the pros and cons of being treated with isonicotinylhydrazine (INH) when you are healthy?
Avatar m tn There are a couple other antibiotics that can be prescribed if NGU is persistent, Erythromycine or Moxifloxacin. However, I would only use Moxifloxacin as a last resort, as it can have some very harsh and lasting side effects. In addition, if it's fungal related (Trich) they can also treat you with an alternative regimen of metronizadole. Return to your doctor and discuss persistent NGU with him and CDC guidelines for testing and treating: http://www.cdc.
Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with pneumonia 6 weeks ago. I was on oral antibiotics for 2 days, then admitted with an IV drip for 3 days (levifloxacin, as I'm allergic to penicillin-based drugs) then given a 5 day course of oral clarithromyacin. I rested for 2 more weeks after finishing the antibiotics but was still coughing yellow mucus and feeling tired with moderate/mild activity.
Avatar f tn It was also recently that my test results from a swab culture came positive for mycoplasma when in the past urine tests always said i was negative for all STDs. When my test results kept coming back negative the doctor told me it was fine to have sex with my partner. My partner also tested negative for everything and so after i finished the antibiotic treatments i waited a week before having sex.
