Is taking doxycyclene for 14 days sufficient treatment for primary stage of syph!


Question:

Is taking doxycyclene for 14 days sufficient treatment for primary stage of syphilis?


Answers:

It is normal to give a single dose of penicillin for the primary stage. The medication that you state that you have received should be adequate also.
Syphilis is a very infectious disease and I add a link containing information about this disease, which I strongly urge you to read. Bear in mind that after a cure has been effected, it does not give immunity and the disease may be re-contracted.
