Azithromycin Treatment Failure in Mycoplasma genitalium –Positive Patients with Nongonococcal Urethritis Is Associated with Induced Macrolide Resistance

6 Nov 2008

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Mycoplasma genitalium is a common cause of nongonococcal urethritis. Treatment trials have shown that doxycycline is inefficient, whereas a 5-day course of azithromycin eradicates the bacterium from 95% of infected men. The aim of the study was to establish the reason for the occasional treatment failures. METHODS: Seven M. genitalium strains isolated from men who experienced azithromycin treatment...
