[Results of 5-day ofloxacin (Tarivid) treatment of chlamydial urethritis in men].
The examined group of men with urethritis comprises 40 patients at age 20-50 yrs. Diagnosis of Chlamydia trachomatis infection was based on the positive results of two of three techniques: culture on McCoy cells, direct immunofluorescent (Chlamyset) and immunoenzymatic (Chlamydiazyme) methods. The patients with CT-urethritis were treated with Tarivid given orally 2 X 200 mg daily for 5 days. Five days later they were reexamined with the same methods. The results were as follows: 36 out of 40 patients were negative by culture and Chlamydiazyme and were clinically cured. Four were positive by both methods and still had symptoms of urethritis.
