Hi, I guess you must stick to what the doctor told you, but certainly there are many othe more efficient antibiotics. It is very common to treat syphilis with consecutive daily intramuscular injections of procaine penicillin. The dosage and duration of treatment vary from patient to patient. If there is an allergy to penicillin present, other treatment options are available like alternative approaches to treatment. Benzathine penicillin for I.M. injection in just one administration will adequately treat primary and secondary syphilis.
