Uncomplicated gonococcal infection should be treated with a single 500-mg dose of intramuscular ceftriaxone in people weighing less than 331 lb (150 kg).

Physicians should obtain a sexual history free from assumptions about sex partners or practices. Sexually active men who have sex with men should be screened at least annually. All sexually active people with a cervix who are younger than 25 years and older people with a cervix who have risk factors should be screened annually for chlamydial and gonococcal infections. Because most infections are asymptomatic, screening is key to preventing complications such as pelvic inflammatory disease and infertility and decreasing community and vertical neonatal transmission. Infections caused by Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae are increasing in the United States.
