Exceedingly high levels of tetracycline resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae in eight WHO Enhanced Gonococcal Antimicrobial Surveillance Programme countries in three WHO regions, 2021–2024—doxycycline ... AbstractObjectives. Doxycycline post-exposure prophylaxis (doxycycline-PEP) can reduce incident cases of syphilis, chlamydia and possibly gonorrhoea especi

#WHO study shows high gonococcal resistance to #tetracycline (92% isolates in 8 countries)

#DoxyPEP unlikely to reduce gonorrhoea. Adverse impact to consider: selection of MDR gonococcal strains, impact on other pathogens & commensals
