Prophylactic antibiotic courses were defined as either a prescription for an oral fluoroquinolone as ciprofloxacin (ciproxin, Bayer Pharma AG, Leverkusen, Germany) 1000 mg/d (500 mg twice a day) or intravenous third-generation cephalosporin as ceftriaxone (
Rocephin, Hoffmann-La Roche, Kaiseraugst, Switzerland) 2 g/d, whereas initial ED management with at least 3-day therapy.

Because of well-documented treatment failures with cefixime and other oral cephalosporins, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention now recommends only one regimen for the treatment of gonorrhea: dual treatment with a single intramuscular dose of 250 mg of ceftriaxone (
Rocephin) plus 1 g of azithromycin in a single dose.
