Augmentin for syphilis

Common Questions and Answers about Augmentin for syphilis

augmentin

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 f tn Would the augmentin help? Do I need an std test with no symptoms?
Avatar n tn 1) although not preferred, will the Augmentin regimen clear me of anything? 2) how soon could I be accurately tested for STD's?

Avatar m tn That said, prophylactic antibiotic therapy is not unreasonable. Augmentin has not been studied in this contact, but for sure it would successfully abort incubating syphilis. It's activity against gonorrhea is less certain, but 1,000 mg should effectively prevent or abort gonorrhea if taken twice daily for 5 days. The other STD of potential concern is herpes due to HSV-1, although the chance of that is very low.
Avatar m tn so I took my STD test but before I got the result I panicked thinking of gonorrhea or syphilis and took Augmentin for 3 days. Now the tests are all negative but considering the window period for some STD, should I finish taking Augmentin as a precaution to get rid of the possible infection? Thank you.
Avatar f tn They told me on my chin was a cold sore, but my shaft was nothing, just a random scab (from what I don’t know). They prescribed me augmentin for my throat because I have a history of bacterial larangytis and with antibiotics I’ve had fast recovery. On the 15th I went back to the ER because my throat was so bad I could swallow and needed fluids for a fever as well as pain relief.
Avatar f tn Non-reactive and TPHA Titre <1:80) Do I need to get retested to confirm? Also, is the TPHA also an efficient/effective test like the TPPA? I am in Pakistan right now and I am not satisfied with the doctors that I have seen. Please suggest. It's taking an emotional toll on me and causing me a lot of worry/stress.
Avatar m tn If i did, will i transmit it to my wife the next day? I am currently on Augmentin 1G for acute bronchitis, will it treat Syphilis? Im more worried about my wife. Worth to mention, before the appearance of the canker my wife did a filler re-touch to her lips and in the same night the canker appeared. Do i need testing? And when? Thank you all.
Avatar n tn Well it would be a risk for syphilis but the syphilis sore is pretty nasty when you see it. Sore forms at about 21 days.
Avatar n tn During third - fifth week i had joint paints (knees). During fifth week i had testicle pain so doctor prescribed Augmentin for 7 days. So after 6 weeks Im still having muscle twitching and strange parestezias like tingling nerves in feet fingers and achilles. I cant repeat my tests for 3 more weeks becasue of lack of money. Does that sounds like an std?
Avatar m tn ve been reading online and I found many sites that state that if one of the partners has syphilis and HIV the chance for the other partner to catch HIV is 2 to 5 times higher. Is this true?
Avatar m tn Your chances of having syphilis are virtually zero. Both the Augmentin and the ceftriaxone have substantial activity against syphilis and would have prevented development of a syphilis lesion. That you developed a lesion after taking these antibiotics assures me that this is not syphilis. As far as what it might be, antibiotics have no meaningful activity against herpes or other viruses and thus this might be an initial episode of HSV or, some other, non-STD viral infection.
Avatar f tn Two days later a had signs of Gonorrhea (without yelo discharge). Pain in the testicles and in the urethra. I took 3gms of Augmentin, never cleared. So I went on line to find out herpes symtoms (similar). I have no lesions. Having the symptoms and avoiding sex I went for a full STD test, all negative except herpes 2 (still waiting on Herpes 1).
Avatar n tn I was on Augmentin for 5 days and then tetracycline for 7 days...Isnt it true that some ppl dont experience symtoms?? and what abt chlamidya and gonnorhea...can i be having that??
Avatar f tn I was wondering if anyone else has taken Augmentin. I was prescribed it for a double ear infection. Originally I was given acetic acid drops but they aren't working. I plan on calling my OB in the morning to double check. They are pregnancy category B. Although they are thought to be safe not many studies have been done on them. I'm nervous about everything. This is my first pregnancy and I am only 18. Thank you!!
250701 tn?1320974765 My lung Doctor called me in some augmentin because I have been coughing up thick yellow mucus. I just don't know if I can take it on treatment. Does anyone know??
Avatar m tn The lesions you describe do not sound like classical syphilis and syphilis is aware disease, particularly among heterosexuals (even I foreign nations). Nonetheless syphilis can have varied presentations and although unlikely, could be definitively ruled out with ablood test. If this was syphilis 10 or more days of amoxicillin would likely be curative.. My suspicion however is that this is not syphilis or any other STD but likely some other benign skin condition, perhaps cysts. Nonetheless.
Avatar m tn s tests and I was diagnosed with syphilis. A private doctor prescribed me augmentin xr 1000 for 14 days. When one month has passed after the treatment I had another tests in other clinic and results for syphilis were negative, however I suffered some sort of urticarias, which I guess were an allergic reaction from the antibiotic and I went to see another dermatologist, who said that I still might have syphilis. I went to her clinic she made tests and confirmed that I still have it.
Avatar n tn But 10-15% are resistant. Augmentin is active against even the resistant strains. Augmentin has not been studied for its effect against pharyngeal gonorrhea, but in the doses used for strep throat and respiratory infections, it probably would cure it. Asymptomatic urethral gonorrhea is uncommon in men, and testing is reliable. The asymptomatic person can be sure he doesn't have it. There is no point in you being tested while taking augmentin.
Avatar m tn I should add that I was prescribed Augmentin at the same time post operatively for a knee arthroscope and wondered whether this could interfere with the efficacy of the azithromycin?
Avatar n tn He also ordered for a HIV screening, Syphilis test and a CBC. All came back negative with normal CBC (WBC count 8.7). Later, the Pharyngitis got worse and I had to take a dose of Augmentin after my Amox dose. With Augmentin it subsided, but I developed Allergic Rhinitis (as my sinuses cleared) and also started having mild eye infection (1st right eye and the then left). Since last two days I started having discomfort near my groin and passed a few drops of blood late last night with urine.
