Additional question: Is this medication available for purchase outside? I was wondering...
Doctor's answer:
Mycoplasma is primarily transmitted through direct contact, such as sexual intercourse with a patient suffering from non-gonococcal urethritis. There is also indirect contact transmission, involving the use of clothing, bedding, towels, bathtubs, toilets, and other items previously used by patients with non-gonococcal urethritis, as well as perinatal transmission. This disease is completely curable, but it requires proper medical treatment. Additionally, sexual partners who are also infected with this pathogen should be treated.The principles for treating mycoplasma infection are:
① Early diagnosis and early treatment;
② Timely, sufficient, and standardized treatment;
③ Different treatment plans for different conditions;
④ Treating sexual partners simultaneously.
Macrolide drugs (such as azithromycin, erythromycin, ethyl erythromycin, roxithromycin, clarithromycin, etc.) and quinolone drugs (such as ofloxacin, levofloxacin, etc.) can be used for treatment. Generally, a course of medication lasting 7-10 days is required.
