Abstract

One hundred and sixty-four male patients suffering from urethral gonorrhoea were treated in an open randomised trial with either 250 mg (n = 85) or 500 mg (n = 79) ciprofloxacin administered in one tablet. Cure rates in both groups were 100%. Postgonococcal urethritis was observed in 31 of 85 (36%) patients in the first group, and in 21 of 79 patients (27%) in the second group. Side-effects were minor, occurring in four patients in the 250 mg group (4.7%) and in seven in the 500 mg group (8.9%). The side-effects consisted of nausea, diarrhoea and headache. Ciprofloxacin would appear to be a very effective drug in the treatment of urethral gonorrhoea in males.
