The Treatment of Sexually Transmitted Diseases
Slavko Schönwald
Sažetak
Urethritis in males and cervicitis in women
caused by C. trachomatis and uropathogen mycoplasma have
a significant role among sexually transmitted diseases. Their
place is determined primarily because their symptomatology
is independent from etiology and the therapy exclusively
depends on etiology. Because of this good diagnostics is
needed in order to properly diagnose this clinically most common
syndrome and to apply adequate therapy that should be
administered in both partners. Numerous antimicrobial drugs
among tetracyclines, macrolides, and quinolones can be used
for the treatment of these clinical syndromes. Azithromycin
has a significant place among antimicrobials due to its specific
pharmacokinetics that anables sample dosage regimen.
Many clinical studies performed to date have shown that
there is no statistically significant difference between other
antimicrobial drugs compared to azithromycin, which indirectly
designates azithromycin as the drug of choice in the treatment
of cervicitis/urethritis caused by C. trachomatis.
