Zithromax for bv

Common Questions and Answers about Zithromax for bv

zithromax

Avatar m tn My concern is the following - I was tested first for Gonorhea and Chlymedia and then was provided the zithromax pills - they never tested for NGU at that clinic - About 5 days later I went to another specialist and then was tested via swab for the NGU and bacteria - those test came back at 0 negative. My concern is that maybe I had NGU and those zithromax pills killed the bacteria before the swab test.
Avatar m tn recently had vaginal swabs taken in doctor's surgery which tested positive for BV and chlamydia. Didn't have any symptoms. Took the relevant antibiotics and now three weeks after completing them I'm experiencing a heavy discharge and mild lower abdominal pain. Went to the GUM clinic on the advice of my doctor at the time of diagnosis who said that they couldnt rule out gonnorhea as they didn't know if the nurse in my surgery had ordered this test on the swabs.
Avatar n tn BUT now that you have taken zithromax, testing for chlamydia/gonorrhea is not recommended until about 4 weeks after you took the medication or you may get a false result. And if it is chlamydia, the zithromax will cure it.
Avatar f tn Went to the clinic today, it's been 14 days since treatment, I was told abstain for 7 days after treatment which I did, the fill in for my doc was rude and abrasive, telling me in so many words I was stupid for having sex before two weeks was up, even though my partner was also treated. Then after preparing for the swab said I sure had a lot of discharge, which is odd as I haven't experienced any until she started swabbing.
Avatar m tn I have done plenty of research and know that I have not been tested for Ureaplasma/Micoplasma/Trich! Medication taken. Zithromax one gram/Cipro 500 MG twice a day for a week, doxi 200 mg for ten days, flagyl 2g one dose, 500 mg twice a day for a week. Now from what i have read on this forumn this should of taken care of this. Reading further Mycoplasma Genitalium is associated in women with BV and proliferates in women with BV.
Avatar n tn I got 2 pills of zithromax for chlamydia. The lady said no sex but i figured hand jobs were ok. Ive got 3 handjob and was wondering if this could re infect me with chlamydia? The one who gave me the handjobs also has chlamydia. Also how long untill this is cured/??
Avatar m tn I was with someone exposed to both. I am taking one dose of 1.5g of zithromax to stop or cure myself from catcing of having either one. Will this work and or do the job?
5915949 tn?1396188227 I guess it just makes me nervous cuz I was already on some antibiotics for BV in the beginning of the pregnancy.
Avatar f tn At the beginning of June I plan on getting retested for HSV1 and HSV2 using the IgG test since it will be more than four months since I was possibly exposed to herpes. The thing is that since the date that I last had sex I have had bacterial vaginosis, the Gadernella strain, the entire time. I've taken different medications and it will not go away.
Avatar f tn I have only ever taken an Antibiotic for a BV infection, maybe that is something you need to do. If I were you I would get a full STD screening as well as a yeast and BV culture so that you can be sure. You dont want to suffer like this any longer treating the wrong thing or not treating it properly.
Avatar n tn Would it be normal for this to be primary outbreak area for a woman? would it clear in that time frame? Can females have urethritis without an std? Please give me hope that I havent destroyed my world.
Avatar m tn Okay, maybe you all can help me out... Maybe not... I've posted here a few times lately over a bad experience on 10-01-13. I had a one time encounter with a guy I know... Unprotected, stupidly! Two days after encounter I was std tested, no symptoms, just nervous. I was treated with 1 gram of zithromax, 1 gram of rocephin IM, and was tested for HIV, HSV1&2, syphillis, mycoplasma genitalium, chlamydia, and gonhorrea.
Avatar m tn I recently had vaginal swabs taken which tested positive for Bacterial Vaginitis and Chlamydia!!! I took the relevant antibiotics (Zithromax 1g and a course of metronidalzole for a week). I finished these three and a half weeks ago. I should prob point out that my diagnosis was quite a surprise as I wasn't experiencing any symptoms. However, about a week ago I started to experience 'symptoms'! Mainly a heavy discharge and mild lower abdominal and back pain.
Avatar m tn based on fact it recurred twice having taken 1g Zithromax but on 3rd attempt of 1g Zithromax it went away for 4years? I.e If it was MG in first instance it appeared to be resistant to first two doses of 1g Zithromax so it would't have gone away on the third dose. 4) Could it be herpes? I have no symptoms. Should I get a type specific HSV test? Would it give a definitive answer for herpes? 5) My regular partner was checked before for Chlym & Gono. Nothing found.
Avatar f tn Ok so Im going on 3 months did my blood test all my blood work was perfect no hiv are anything of that sort urine perfect no stds period but I got a pap smer and my obgyn found that I tested positive for bv witch she explained to me with a smile so I knew it wasn't that bad and gave me lots of medicine but I found out it can cause miscarriage yicks!!

Avatar f tn I took my antibiotics for bv and then went to sleep. Woke up sweating and running to the bathroom having diarrhea. I'm still sweating and I'm having some stomach pain. Anybody experience this? Is it the antibiotics doing it to me ? I'm 17 weeks pregnant.
Avatar m tn my wide took amoxcillin 1000 g 2 x times a day for a throat infection. She did this for 8 days. And i took 1g zithromax the same time and we didn't had sex for a week. Oktober: my wife was treated with azithromycine sandoz 1g and 500 mg the next day because she had her wisdom teeth removed. i took doxycycline 100 mg a day for 5 days and also 1,5 g zithromax on day 6. My wufe and i had sex after 7 days that i took the doxy and she the azithromycine. Questions.
Avatar n tn t yet developed the infection, as would be indicated by the presence of a lesion or a positive blood test, than it takes for curative treatment. The augmentin taken twice daily for two weeks would certainly cure and prevent development of syphilis. The combination of cefixime and azithromycin would most probably prevent infection but it would not be curative if the infection was established.
Avatar m tn do you mean to say there is no treatment for bv
Avatar f tn finally today I got my results back and she said I am positive for BV AND Trich. I’ve been with my boyfriend for 4 years, I got BV the first couple months we started having intercourse (not sure if it was Trich as well) we have a two year old daughter, I’ve been to the doctor numerous times over the past 3 years getting tested for STD/STI, and poked, prodded for other reasons (endo, ovarian cysts) not once out of these 4 years I’ve been with him have I been positive for Trich.
Avatar f tn This could be a result of the chlamydia, but it may be worth a call to your doctor. How are you taking the zithromax? You should have taken 1000 mgs at one time for it to be effective. It doesn't sound like that's what you're doing? https://www.cdc.gov/std/tg2015/chlamydia.htm - if you need to, show this to your doctor.
