Single-session treatment of uncomplicated gonorrhoea in men, using penicillin combined with cotrimoxazole. Controlled trial comparing four different treatment schedules with observations on antibiotic sensitivities of gonococci and a review of the literature.

Single-dose treatment of gonorrhoea with cotrimoxazole. A report on 1,223 cases.

“…From our own results (unpublished) and those of others (J0rgensen and Kvorning, 1971;Wigfield, Selkon, and Rich, 1973), it would appear that a single dose of six tablets is much less effective than eight tablets in eradicating the gonococcus, and we would suggest the latter schedule to be the minuimum number of tablets which should be given as a single dose.…”

Prevalence of multiple antibiotic resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

“…Antibiotic resistance, and in particular resistance to penicillin, has become an increasing problem in the control of gonorrhoea (Curtis and Wilkinson, 1958;Wigfield, Selkon, and Rich, 1973;Stolz, Zwart, and Michel, 1975). Varying degrees of correlation of decreased susceptibility of Neisseria gonorrhoeae between pairs of antimicrobial agents have been observed (Reyn and Bentzon, 1968;Phillips, Rimmer, Ridley, Lynn, and Warren, 1970;Watko and Brownlow, 1975).…”
