levaquin and gonorrhea

It will cure chlamydia, not gonorrhea.

Getting anything from oral sex is not terribly likely, so stop taking the meds, and if you must, test for gonorrhea and NGU two weeks after taking your last levaquin, which should be now. (If you hadn't taken that, you could test at a week after the exposure.

Was told I probably had no std and the Flagyl would kill potential NGU / Clamydia if present and Levaquin would take care of Gonorrhea. Other risks he said were not valid with no apparent viral sores on mouth of partner. Took the Flagyl and 4 days of Levaquin and resumed contact with normal monogomous partner. Partner later developed what GYN called a bladder infection with horrible back pains and frequent urination / urgency. She rcvd, Nitrofuran mono 100mg and took several days...

was prescribed levaquin 500mg for 7 days.

Again the symptoms receded but again they returned. This time my doctor prescribed Levaquin (7 days x 500 mg) and 1 shot of Ceftriaxone. I was re-tested for Chlamydia and don't have the results yet. I read scary reports of serious side effects of Levaquin. It's potent but has risks which is why it's given only as a second line of defense. I'm nervous about taking it and I'm wondering if there are effective alternatives to this.

None of these is likely to cause pain without discharge or other symptoms. But if you were incubating gonorrhea or NGU, the azithromycin and levaquin would have prevented them. The fact that the treatment made no difference is further evidence that the pain was not due to any STD. 2) In theory, if you were infected by the oral sex event, you could have transmitted the infection to your partner the next day. But since almost certainly you didn't catch an STD anyway, partner no.

In the interval between the encounter in which you caught gonorrhea and the time you were treated you had both vaginal and received oral sex form your wife. She has been receiving treatment with levaquin but, to your knowledge, was not tested for gonorrhea (the routine throat culture would not detect gonorrhea) and does not know she was exposed. If this summary is correct, I would be a bit concerned.

I got symptoms that resemble chlamydia or gonorrhea (frequent urination, weird feelin in the tip of my penis) so I took levaquin 750mg tabs once a day for five days. Is that enough levaquin to knock out either of those stds? I'm still gettin the urge to urinate frequently and now I'm wondering could it be some kind of bladder infection? Any help is appreciated greatly.

Hello, I am on Levaquin for a sinus infection and I just found out that my sexual partner had gonnorhea. And I was wondering if the Levaquin would take care of the gonnorhea if I had it.

Receiving oral...gonorrhea, NGU, herpes and syphilis. Gonorrhea and NGU most common and without symptoms at this point not a worry. Do state clinics or Dr's office. Don't pay for testing through an independent company.

Is this enough to kill Chlamydia and Gonorrhea? Could it just be Urthetitis and would these meds take care of that too? Need answers please.

Amoxicline and Doxycline are good for gonorreha.

I went into a urologist and was diagnosed with potential prostatitis and was put on a 4 week course of bactrim. I had read that chlamydia and gonorrhea could be the cause of prostatitis. I had a complete STI test done and all came back negative. I talked to the original doctor and he made the comment that the Bactrim may have caused a false negative for chlamydia and gonorrhea and prescribed zithromax (1g) and a shot of rosephin as a preventative. I informed my girlfriend and her Dr.

I'm a male and recently had unprotected oral sex and a few days later began feel uncomfortable and have had the urge to urinate a lot. The urination itself doesn't hurt, but afterwards there can be a slight stinging sensation. Reading up on symptoms I can either have a UTI or gonorrhea.

However, levofloxacin (Levaquin) would work against all chlamydia, most gonorrhea, and most of the nonsexually transmitted germs that cause epididymitis. Since this probably isn't an STD problem, this is about as far as this thread can go. You should ask the same questions very directly to your urologist. I hope this helps.

he prescribed me doxycycline and phenazopyridine. I was tested for chlamydia,gonorhea,and trichomaonas, and they all came back negative. I had no sexual intercouse of any kind with the stripper, no ral nothing. I have never had sex before period. Im concerned because they didnt test for herpes. Is there a possibility I have herpes even though theres no visible sores what so ever. Should I go get tested. Or is this just anxiety thats really bothering me.

Chlymidia is out of the question so if anything it would be gonorrhea. And chances are you would have burning while urinating and/or discharge. Chances are you don't have an STD, but to be sure in your mind you can test.

Hello, I received oral sex unprotected for less than a minute from a sex worker about 10 weeks ago. I took antibiotics prophylactically for a week afterwards with levaquin and doxycycline. I had unprotected sex with my partner 5 days after the incident (had been taking antibiotics). I was never symptomatic with any pain or discharge. I then had sex two weeks later. following this still no symptoms. Then 7 weeks later I had sex again.

Dr. - I am a male, and 8 days ago I had oral sex and very short (less than a minute) unprotected vaginal sex. Because I freaked out, I took Levaquin (2 tablets, not sure of the mg, but very large pills). I took the pills 3 days ago. Today I got very ill, with a sore throat and noticed that I have a sore testicle. The soreness in my testicle is not my imagination, it is pretty tender.

I decided to go to my primary care doctor and see if I maybe had a uti ...she said no and prescribed me levaquin in case it was gonorrhea. I am still feeling a lot of pain in my lower abdomen I was just wondering if this sounds like herpes? p.

Ok so i went to the doctors for because i had kidney pain and i my urethra itches constantly my tongue is a whitish color and i have dry mouth, at night i sweat alot in my sleep, my tests for gonorrhea and chlamydia came back negative i also have ahad headaches im worried any ideas what it could be?

I have slight raised swelling around the opening of my penis that seems to flare up after oral and vaginal sex. I have recently been treated for epididymitis with Levaquin and had been on Doxycycline for acne for two months prior to this. I do not have any discharge and I have not had any frequent urination problems either. There is occasional itching at the opening that comes and goes. Does this sound like Chlamydia or Gon? Is there any other cause for this?

I have taken two tests since and both have come back negative from gonorrhea and chlamydia. Things just dont feel right down there. I have been to a urologist twice, and he thinks I am okay. But I masterbated earlier and it stung a little bit while i tried to hold back an orgasm. I am afraid because that was the one symptom I had along with yellow discharge when I had chlamydia. Should I be worried? I have not had sex with anyone since the last two tests that were negative.
