Abstract

Minocycline was used for the treatment of non-gonorrheal urethritis caused by chlamydia trachomatis. To 22 male patients minocycline was administered at a dose of 100 mg, orally, twice daily, for 10 to 36 days. Of the 22 patients, 21 showed improvement of subjective and objective symptoms and signs. The effective rate was 95.5%. In no case adverse reaction was noted. Minocycline was proved to be useful in the treatment of chlamydia trachomatis infections.
