Ofloxacine for Gonorrhea?

I'm taking Ofloxacine for a week now for treatment for UTI. My partner has gonorrhea. I'm not sure if I'm also infected. Will Ofloxacine help cure gonorrhea?

Yes ofloxacin does and can cure a gonorrhea infection.

If you think you have gonorrhea though, you should be tested for it. You doctor may want to give you a different medication such as ciprofloxacin or levofloxacin, which are more commonly used to treat a gonorrhea infection.

I have been writing in this forum that self medication is the most dangerous disease. Any complication you should see a doctor and he should decide the treatment and medicine. I do not know you are a male or female and if at all you or your partner has Gonorrhea should be assessed by a doctor. Also the dosage and number of days to be decided by the doctor only. Please therefore show to a General physician and he will treat you properly. However for your information I am giving below the methods of treatment for this disease.

The mainstay treatment for Gonorrhea is the appropriate use of antibiotics. Nowadays, a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic such as ceftriaxone is often recommended for treating gonorrhoea. In some areas of the U.S., resistance to fluoroquinolone antibiotics (ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin, levofloxacin) is high and its use to treat infections acquired in these locations is not recommended. Doctors usually prescribe one of the following antibiotics to treat gonorrhoea:
Cefixime 400 mg,
Ceftriaxone 125 mg intramuscular injection
Cefpodoxime 400mg
Ciprofloxacin 500 mg
Ofloxacin 400 mg
Levofloxacin 250 mg
As co-infection with chlamydia is common, doctors often prescribe a combination of antibiotics, such as ceftriaxone with doxycycline or azithromycin, which together will treat both diseases. Patients should abstain from sex for 5-7 days after treatment. Usually, no follow up is needed to ensure the organism has been eradicated, though persons should be re-tested 3 months after treatment because rates of re-infection are high. Sexual partners should also be screened and treated to prevent re-infection in either partner.
