Ceftriaxone was used in single intravenously dose of 1 g to treat 20 men with gonorrhoea caused by penicillinase-producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae (PPNG) and non-PPNG. Of 14 patients followed up, 13 (92.9%) were cured. Cure rates for PPNG infections and non-PPNG infections were 100% and 90.9% respectively. No side effect was observed except 1 case of vomiting out of 20 cases. It is concluded that this drug is safe and effective in treating both PPNG and non-PPNG infections.
