Our study shows that NG susceptibility to extended-spectrum cephalosporins remains high in Spain. The azithromycin resistance rate questions the suitability of dual therapy. This study provides data of interest for updating the national treatment guidelines and highlights the need to develop and implement a national sentinel gonococcal antimicrobial susceptibility programme.
