Avatar m tn Then, i went to a doctor just to be sure and got prescribed a ceftriaxone injection as well as 14 days of doxycycline dosage. the doctor didnt actually suspect it might be gonorrhea but he prescribed them anyway in case i have either gonorrhea and chlamydia. But problem is, the medicines did not help. I still have this random occassional discharge, even today :( I went to another doctor actually last week, and asked him what are the other possible scenarios.
Avatar m tn 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: http://www.cdc.
Avatar f tn I have taken doxycycline twice, azythromicin, metronidazole, and moxifloxacin. I had relief with initial doxycycline treatment, but it came back shortly after. Tests for herpes, gonorrhea, chlamydia, ureaplasma, micoplasma, trichomonas, syphillis, HIV, hepatitis are all negative. Cystoscopy 2 weeks ago confirmed urethritis. No other symptoms. Why does my penis still burn?
Avatar m tn When signs got more intense I went to see my GP who has prescribed me now 10 days of moxifloxacin. Am now on my second day. Symptoms have somewhat improved. NB: only protected sex in between these symptoms. My question would be: how likely is it that there would be still any bacteria left to bother me after this treatment? After all the antibiotics I have taken (or am taking right now). I wonder if I just have a recurrent inflammation? What to do if symptoms persist?
Avatar m tn Be that as it may, with repeated treatments with both doxycycline and azithromycin, you may wish to talk to your doctor about a course of moxifloxacin. Your situation is a difficult one and moxifloxacin has proven to be effective against chlamydia, mycoplasma genitalium and gets into the prostate well. Hope this helps.
Avatar m tn 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?
Avatar m tn 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.
Avatar m tn s and they all came back negative. So no Chlamydia or Gonorrhea, etc. That being said, the discharge was tested for white blood cells and came back positive so I was treated with 1g Azithromycin. The discharge never really went away so I returned and was treated with moxifloxacin for seven days. The routine went on and I have since been treated with 2g metronidazole and 500 mg ciprofloxacin twice a day for ten days. Nothing has really changed.
Avatar n tn A recent study was done to show that Myco was only erradicated by 85% of those on the Azithro regiment described, however Avelox ( Moxifloxacin) killed Myco in all cases. Routine is to try described Azithro regimen first and if symtoms still exist Moxifloxacin. Why? I guess so that Myco doesn't become Moxifloxacin resistant. Save the bugs, kill the patient kind of thing. I say take the 400mg a day X 10 day regiment of Moxifloxacin and help yourself.
Avatar n tn Hey guys! I wanted to take the chance and share my story. Maybe someone can help me out here. The beginning of my Story lies in the beginning of January, where I had unprotected intercourse with a woman in the Philippines. We spent a week together, had a wealthier background and works for a Multinational. So no random street hookup. Over the course of the week, we had all kind of sexual practices including oral and anal sex.
Avatar f tn 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.
788075 tn?1366513312 No it does not sound like a STD, but I would have some basic testing like gonorrhea and chlamydia. I would also use condoms!!
Avatar f tn I have been tested negative for all the typical STDs and parasites (HIV, herpes, gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, hepatitis, mycoplasma, giardia, HPV/warts, etc). All urinalysis and stools tests came back negative as well. I have seen a urologist and proctologist which have diagnosed me with proctitis and interstitial cystitis since they can't seem to find the cause of my symptoms.
Avatar m tn But the doctor mentioned that my white blood cell count is slightly higher than normal ( WBC count taken from the swabs, not from my blood work) and mentioned that there might be an infection so she prescribed Avelox (Moxifloxacin), 4 x 400mg once daily. The background is, I am Chinese male, been with my girlfriend for about a year and both of us have been loyal and we were both asymptomatic before this event.
Avatar m tn Welcome to the forum. You describe a somewhat confusing situation, and I'm not sure I understand the sequence of different partners and their treatment. Your symptoms are highly suggestive of recurrent or persistent nongonococcal urethritis (NGU), which by definition isn't gonorrhea and is rarely caused by chlamydia -- so it isn't surprising your routine STD tests are negative. However, the only treatment you mention is doxycycline. Were no other treatments tried?
Avatar n tn 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.
Avatar n tn The combination of azithromycin and ciprofloxacin was highly reliable against either gonorrhea or NGU. So all things considered, you can be sure you did not have gonorrhea. With new symptoms after sex with your wife, it is possible you acquired a new infection entirely. However, you are a better judge than I am about whether your wife might otherwise be at risk for STDs. If that isn't likely, then this may be a recurrence of NGU. Herpes and gonorrhea both remain unlikely.
Avatar m tn Does anyone know what the cure rate of ceftriaxone 250 mg injection is for treating gonorrhea? Or the 400 mg pill of cifixime? I have been having issues for 5 months now and I have taken every antibiotic known to man and I am still having issues. Male Symptoms: Urethral pain " that comes and goes" occasional skanty clear discharge. Test taken: Gonorrhea and Chlamydia Clean but had take ammoxicilin days prior to test "False negative???
Avatar f tn Hi, we are not doctors on these sites but I am a microbiologist and can give you some advice. It is rare to have Moxifloxacin resistance but it does happen. Since you both still have symptoms. Have you re-tested after treatment? If so I would wait about a week before re-testing to get the antibiotic out of your system. Yes usually after treatment of up to 14 days you should be symptom free unless it is a resistant strain or you have something else causing the problem.
Avatar m tn t offer at the time and this test confirmed i have mycoplasma gen. He also took a swab to develop in the lab and he said moxifloxacin 400mg was fast effective to the bacteria but there was a part of the bacteria that was resistant. He still gave me a 20 day course and its been a week since i've finished it and yes the infection is still there. My symptoms is not as bad as some other sufferers, slight discharge in the mornings and tingles around the tip but not as much as before.
177275 tn?1511755244 The agency said it received an adverse event report on August 14 from a physician whose patient was diagnosed postoperatively with bilateral HORV after being administered injections of a compounded triamcinolone, moxifloxacin, and vancomycin (TMV) formulation in each eye after cataract procedures that were done 2 weeks apart. Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc, of Ledgewood, New Jersey, had compounded the TMV.
Avatar n tn This time I have been tested for Trichomoniasis,Gonorrhea, and Chlamydia. All came back negative. Today I read about mycoplasma genitalium. Given my symptoms could this be what I have? Does it sound like an std at all? The stinging is very slight. The worse part of it all is that I might have infected female 1 or 2 with this if it is an std.
