چکیده

Wilcox (1970), in reviewing the problems of treating gonorrhoea in South-East Asia, noted that relatively large doses of penicillin had been used in the region for the last 10 years, but that nevertheless failure rates of 30 per cent. and higher had often been reported. When treating gonorrhoea acquired in the Philippines and Hong Kong, Holmes, Johnson, and Floyd (1967a) found that treatment with probenecid and penicillin gave better results than penicillin alone. Maurer and Schneider (1969) reported similar experience in Vietnam. The object of this paper is to present the results of treating gonorrhoea among servicemen in Singapore with two regimes of probenecid and penicillin.
