Doctors usually prescribe a single dose of one of the following antibiotics to treat gonorrhea:
- Cefixime

As coinfection with chlamydia is common, doctors often prescribe a combination of antibiotics, such as ceftriaxone and doxycycline or azithromycin, which will treat both diseases.
Follow up treatment is needed to ensure the organism has been eradicated. Sexual contacts should also be screened and treated if necessary.
