Mycoplasma genitalium treatment outcomes among a cohort failing macrolide resistance-guided treatment across three London sexual health clinics.

Whilst high compliance with recommended MRAM-guided therapy was identified, there were also high rates of quinolone therapy failure (32.2%). Barriers to appropriate treatment include a lack of quinolone resistance assays and the non-availability of sitafloxacin in Europe, along with the limited availability of pristinamycin and minocycline in the UK during the study dates. We recommend developing a standardised management pathway for treatment resistant cases.
