The pain got increasingly worse and 2 days later I went for a checkup. I was given a urinalysis and diagnosed with a UTI. I had a higher than usual white blood count. They did not check for STDs.
The doctor prescribed Moxifloxacin Hydrochloride.I began the medication and within 2-3 days the stinging sensation while urinating had decreased.
The following Friday July 8th I had conjunctivitis. I read online that this is a possible symptom of chlamydia.
He had a continuous mild fever, swollen feet, and irritation while passing urine. We suspected UTI and got a urine culture/sensitivity test done on March 18. The report showed growth of E.coli.
Since then, he has been prescribed four courses of antibiotics, but his fever is not abating. He was first on Martifur 100 mg, then on ciprofloxacin, then moxifloxacin, and currently on Amikacin 500 (twice daily). He has been given 6 injections already, but the fever shows no signs of abating.
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?
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.
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?
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.
Different bacteria can respond to different medication
now only left moxifloxacin hasnt try, seems to be last resort. this bacteria already bothered me for 6 months, really want to get rid of it.
I cannot imagine it is worth the time and expense to travel internationally to get some new drug for it. And while moxifloxacin resistance may be common in some parts of Australia, it appears to be effective in most geographic areas.
As for any drug not being "allowed" for treatment of certain infections, that reflects a misunderstanding.
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.
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!
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:

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.
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.
My boyfriend got tested positive for mycoplasma genitalium. We have been together about year and a half (and he has not had sex with anybody else for about 2,5 years and then with a condom). Could it be that he got it even before that, so maybe 3-4 years ago and it didn’t show? And how is it possible that in november I tested negative for the same thing and we have regular sex? I am pretty sure he hasn’t cheated on me.
week 1 azithromycin, week 3 metronidizole, week 5 low dose oxytetracycline , 6 weeks nitrofuratoin as at this visit a uti culture came back positive. A retest for a uti one week later was negative but my symptoms were unchanged throughout all treatments. After my last positive nsu swab last week I was given ofloxacin 200g for 7 days and aciclover to cover hsv although I have no other symptoms of hsv other than an inflamed urethra.
if the problem persists or recurs, give the alternate drug plus metronidazole (Flagyl) or tinidazole (Tindamax) to cover trichomonas; and for still more recurrences, moxifloxacin, apparently the best drug for M. genitalium. If your treatments have been different than this, discuss it with your doctor.
Some cases at this stage may be due to prostatitis. Infection due to unusual bacteria may need to be checked out.
So you were tested for oral M. genitalium? 10 days of Moxifloxacin should be enough to eradicate the M. genitalium. in about 95% of strains. Have you checked if you are running a fever? Since you traveled could you have acquired a parasite? Also, did they do a urine culture on you? It would be good to get your kidneys checked as well (Bun, Creatinine blood tests) done to make sure they are functioning well. Be sure to drink enough water. You cuold have a eye infection.
On the other hand, the moxifloxacin is good for both prostate infections, mycoplasma genitalium and other urianry tract infections. When we are at the satge of "trial and "error", this has been helpful in the past. My consern would be that you have prostatitis.
