STD treatment: Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Chancroid, Trichomoniasis,
Bacterial Vaginosis (BV), and Genital Herpes
STD treatment is indicated for sex partners if the last sexual
encounter was within 60 days. STD treatment of Chlamydia is
indicated for patients being treated for Gonorrhea, and vice versa.
(It is common to have these two STD infections together)
If STD diagnosis is not confirmed, then empiric triple antibiotic
std treatment is advocated for the most common STDs -
Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, and Trichomoniasis. Triple STD antibiotic
regimen: Doxycycline 100 mg twice a day / 10 days; Cipro® XR 500mg
or 1000mg one single dose (or Levaquin®, or Tequin®); and
Metronidazole 500 mg twice a day for 10 days.
