Abstract
Neissaria gonorrhoeae is the causative agent of gonorrhoeae. Culture and antibiogram for this bacteria in clinical n laboratory in not usuall. In the present research 50 gonorrhoeae isolated from 287 exodate patients 14 isolate were sensitive a and 4 isolates were intermediate and 32 out of 50 isolate were resistant to penicillin and 25 of these 32 isolate were resistant due to b-lactamase activity and 4 of thses due to chromosomal resistance. 26% of isolates also were resistant to spectinomycin but all of the isolates were sensitive to ciprofloxacin. Only 2% of isolates were resistant to ceftriaxone. So nowdays penicillin is not indicated for therapy of gonorrhoeae. Spectinomycin is a drug must be administrated with precaution and follow up of patient is necessary. Ceftriaxone and ciprofloxacin are effective drugs that we can use them for resistant strains.
