Common Questions and Answers about Levaquin std

levaquin

Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar f tn I am pretty sure I just have a UTI but if for whatever I have an STD will the Levaquin that I am taking for my UTI cure chlamydia or gonorhea? I am taking 500mg for 6 days. Please help me. This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/246898'>Levaquin for Chlamydia/Gonorrhea</a>.
Avatar m tn Sorry, I took 2 500mg pills of levaquin. I was told that actually one 500mg levaquin pill does the trick. So, in taking two, do you think I need further treatment (assuming a positive test result)?
Avatar m tn Given 2g of Flagyl over 2 days (4 pills each day) and 30 days of Levaquin 500 mg. 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.
Avatar n tn I asked before if could have gotten std from a blowjob and it seems that gonorreah is the only std possible as it lives in the mouth. however, while i have been treated with bactrim and levaquin with no results, the cdc says these drugs are not effective with gonorrhea. isn't ceftriaxine the most effective and shouldnt i be treated with this? second, could i have passed gonnorhea to my wife while on levaquin and on bactrim?
Avatar n tn I came home that day washed very well and started drinking a lot of fluids. I ended up starting to take antibiotics as well. I had a prescription for Levaquin 500 mg pills. I have 20 days worth. Will that kill anything that I could have contracted?
Avatar n tn In persons below age 35, the most common causes of epididymitis are chlamydia and, less commonly, gonorrhea. At your age, most cases are not due to any STD. Prostatitis is not due to any STD either. Despite your age, you should have been tested for gonorrhea and chlamydia. Was that done? If so and the tests were negative, then you can be sure no STD is responsible for the epididymitis or other symptoms. If not tested, the treatments you had should work against the likely STDs.
Avatar n tn Will Levaquin take care of NGU? I have 750 mg prescription from a doctor for sinus? How long would I have to take it? I also have 500 mg prescription of Clarithromycin as well.
Avatar n tn Since that time I have received 2 weeks of 500 mg levaquin. The woman has also been tested for every std under the sun which all came back negative. Any thoughts? Am I making too much of this? Should I leave my penis alone?
Avatar m tn 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.
Avatar m tn Panacing i took 1g of Zpack orally then got tested two days later I took another 1g pack. the results came back negetive. Still having the same feeling I took 500mg of Levaquin. Then I read that it was no longer recommended for GC so i took a 250mg shot of Ceftriaxone. 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.
Avatar m tn I started with sore tongue and itchy anus within a week. All STD tests have been negative, and treated for yeast with no relief. Presently on Doxocycline and Levaquin, this has been ongoing for 4 months. My Dr.s are stumped, any help?
Avatar m tn 13 days ago I had unprotected vaginal sex with a female. I have no idea whether or not she has an STD. 2 days after that I went to the Dr. because I was scared about STD's. At that time I was given a shot and antibiotics for Chlamydia and Gonorhea as a precautionary matter. I did not show any signs of an STD. Since then I have developed Prostatitis. In the past I have had Epidimitis, so I wasn't really concerned about the Prosatitis.
Avatar m tn Like I said this has happened 3 times now and I have never been found to have an std. So does this sound more like a std to you, or prostatitis? I sincerely appreciate your advice, and hope to hear from you again.
Avatar m tn This joint pain is not STD related, follow up with your Dr. Your risk for a STD from the above incident was very very low.
Avatar n tn A female partner gave me oral sex about 12 days ago. A day afterwards I started having a burning pain in my pennis. There was not a discharge.. I took azithromizin 500mg one a day for 6 days for a sinus infection I had at the time and still had the burning and pain with no discharge. I have just started taking Levaquin 500mg once a day. So my questions are what Std's could I have gotten from my female partner doing oral sex on me?
Avatar n tn It's been a year and a half since my exposure, which involved a insertive oral, the girl had bloody mouth. I've had dysuria, urethritis for a year and a half. Had taken levaquin, cipro, doxycycline, azythromycin, and cef. None worked. Could I have gotten genito-urinary tuberculosis, or tuberculosis urethritis from a bloody blowjob?
Avatar n tn The chlamydia blood tests are not at all accurate and we do not offer them in my STD clinic. A positive result can occur in anyone who has ever had a chlamydial infection; it does not diagnose a current, active infection. Further, some positive results come from past chlamydia-like infections of the respiratory tract, like bronchitis.
Avatar m tn Two days after the last episode I began to feel burning from the tip of my penis when urinating. No discharge, but some wetness inside the urethra. Four days ago I went to a walk-in (non-STD) clinic. I provided a urine sample, but nothing abnormal was observed and no tests were performed. I was given a shot of Rocephin and a script for Doxy, which I started. After 2 days I went to see an STD specialist. He took a urine sample (hadn't peed for one hour) and noticed white blood cells.
Avatar m tn About 10 years ago I had an almost identical situation and the doctor said I had prostititis and placed me on a 30 day course of Levaquin. This helped some and if I had symptoms they we very mild. This time I went to a urologist and my urine culture came back negative. He examined my prostate but did not seem to think I have prostititis. He did however place me on a 30 day course of Levaquin which I am about 1/2 way through.
Avatar n tn Everything seemed to be ok but a few months later the prostate problems came back and I was put on a month of Levaquin. I finished the course of Levaquin about a week ago and my meatus is still red and I am concerned that if I did have either of these infections that they may have reoccured. Is there a chance that the initial treatments for my girlfriend and I did not clear up the infection completely? Is Levaquin a treatment for these and would the extended course have cleared these up?
Avatar m tn i never saw her touch her vagina. i want to know if i am at rist for any type of std from this activity? also, it is possible that the outside of the bottle of lotion can be infected from her massaging previos customers and then speading to me?
Avatar m tn Should I go to a urologist now (instead of a general practitioner)? Is it likely I have an std? Should I ask that all of the std tests be performed on me? Should I ask for a shot of penicillen? Any help or suggestions would be very helpful. I'm very stressed and worried right now. I have been totally celibate for 10 years and I screwed up a couple of times recently. OH, doctor gave me a PSA test and it is normal. This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.

Avatar m tn I understand you underwent a STD panel but the STD panels of various labs differ in the diseases they cover under STD. Hence apart from gonorrhea and Chlamydia other STDs should also be tested. Please discuss this with your urologist. Take care!
Avatar n tn What are my chances of contracting HIV? I doubt I had an STD, but if for some reason I did, would the Levaquin have taken care of it?
