Hi I recently had a penile discharge(green) so I took levofloxacin but it didnt improve the. I change to doxycycline 3xday for 14days until. My penile discharge is all gone.. But after 10days it went back again, I have green discharge again. But I never had any sexual contact after my first treatment. What should I do? Can I take doxycycline again and I will and add azithromycin 1g single dose? Thanks
Thanks for contacting Chat Doctor with your medical concerns. From your description it sounds like you have an STD and you have been treating it with levofloxacin and with doxycycline. There has been emergence of more antibiotic resistant strains of gonorrhea. In my practice I give an injection of ceftriaxone and then doxycycline and Zithromax. This combination reduces antibiotic resistant strains and helps reduce reoccurrence. Also have your partner treated with the same regimen Hope this answers your medical question.
