Abstract

Objective To understand the status and drug resistance of Mycoplasma and provide basis for clinical medication. Methods 1 481 specimens from patients with nongonococcal urethritis(NGU) were cultured, meanwhile drug sensitivity test was conducted. Results Among the 683 samples, the positive rate of Ureaplasma urealyticum(Uu) and Mh infection were 43.69%(647/1 481) and 12.90%(191/ 1 481) repectively. Uu was sensitive to josamycin(89.48%) and minocycline (85.94%). Mh was sensitive to minocycline (78.01%) Mycoplasma infection in urogenital tract. Conclusion Minocycline is the first choice for treatment of Uu infection, and Minocycline or Doxycycline are the first choice for treatment of Mh infection.
