Amoxycillin in the treatment of gonorrhoea.
A series of 162 patients with uncomplicated genital gonorrhoea was assessed after single-dose treatment with 3 g. amoxycillin. This seems to be an acceptable method of treatment, resulting in clearance rates in both male and female patients of 99 and 95% respectively at the first follow-up. The default rates on follow-up over a 4-week period are also shown.
