Spectinomycin hydrochloride (Trobicin) in the treatment of gonorrhoea. Observation of resistant strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
Treatment of gonorrhoea with penicillin injections is still considered to be the method of choice, as penicillin is both non-toxic and highly effective when given in suitable doses. However, since about 5 per cent. of patients attending venereal disease clinics are allergic it is important to have several alternatives available. Various injectable antibiotics other than penicillin can be used, ...
متن کاملGonococcal infection in teen-aged girls and mature women.
The spread of gonorrhoea must be prevented by investigating, tracing, and treating the female sexual contacts of men treated for this infection. Its obvious clinical nature in males and the simple test available for diagnosis are the factors concerned in this method of control. In the main, the epidemiological control of venereal disease is a major function of our nation-wide public health clin...
متن کاملSpectinomycin hydrochloride in the treatment of uncomplicated gonorrhoea.
In 1960 spectinomycin, a new broad spectrum antibiotic, was released for clinical investigation and it was shown that the administration of 2 g. of the sulphate salt was effective therapy in acute gonorrhoea yielding cure rates of approximately 87 to 95 per cent. in males. The cure rate in females was 92 per cent. with a 3 g. dose (Laird and Taylor, 1962; Wilcox, 1963; Tiedemann, Hackney, and P...
متن کاملEffect of Actinospectacin (trobicin) in Experimental Syphilis in the Rabbit. Ii. in Subclinical Incubating Syphilis.
The broad-spectrum antibiotic actinospectacint may have general application in human therapy. Its effectiveness in the treatment of gonorrhoea has been reported by Willcox (1962) and by Laird and Taylor (1962). Earlier studies in this laboratory demonstrated its effect in experimental early lesion syphilis in the rabbit (Clark and Yobs, 1963). Patients with symptomatic gonorrhoea may also have ...
متن کاملAntibiotic resistance detection is essential for gonorrhoea point-of-care testing: A mathematical modelling study
Antibiotic resistance is threatening to make gonorrhoea untreatable. Point-of-care (POC) tests that detect resistance promise individually tailored treatment, but might lead to more treatment and higher levels of resistance. We investigate the impact of POC tests on antibiotic-resistant gonorrhoea. We used data about the prevalence and incidence of gonorrhoea in men who have sex with men (MSM) ...
