If it is a gram negative diplococci it is most likely from Neisseria (gonorrhoeae). You can take Ciprofloxacin, a single 250mg dose should do the trick. Other drugs include:
-Amoxicillin 2 g plus probenecid 1 g orally-Ampicillin 2 to 3 g plus probenecid 1 g orally-Azithromycin 2 g orally-Cefixime 400 mg orally[8]-Cefotaxime 500 mg by intramuscular injection-Cefoxitin 2 g by intramuscular injection, plus probenecid 1 g orally-Cefpodoxime (Vantin) 400 mg orally-Ceftriaxone (Rocephin) 125 to 250 mg by intramuscular injection-Ciprofloxacin 500 mg orally-Levofloxacin 250 mg orally-Ofloxacin 400 mg orally-Spectinomycin 2 g by intramuscular injection
Also be sure to check for Chlamydia (signs and symptoms may show up a few weeks later). Those two go together like peaches and herb.
Treatment includes:
-Azithromycin-Erythromycin-Doxycycline/tetracycline,-Cefpodoxim proxetil-Amoxicillin-Zithromax

What diseases does diplococci cause?
Gram negative diplococci cause chlamydia and gonorrhea. Gram positive cause pneumonia.
Is Neisseria meningitidis Gram-positive cocci?
Neisseria gonorrhoeae ( nīsə′rēə ′gänə′rē′ī ) ( microbiology ) A gram-negativecoccus pathogen that causes the sexually transmitted disease gonorrhea
Pathogen cultured from synovial fluid and urethral culture were gram-negative diplococci. what is the pathogen?
The pathogen is most likely Neisseria gonorrhoeae, a gram-negative diplococci bacterium known to cause gonorrhea. It is commonly found in both the synovial fluid and urethral cultures of infected individuals. Prompt treatment with antibiotics is necessary to prevent complications and further spread of the infection.
What is the arrangement of Neisseria sicca?
Neisseria sicca is a gram-negative bacterium that typically occurs in pairs, which are known as diplococci. It is non-motile and non-spore forming.
What gram-negative diplococci bacteria that causes purple rash?
Neisseria meningitidis is the gram-negative diplococci bacteria that can cause a purple rash known as petechiae or purpura. This bacterium is responsible for meningococcal infections, which can lead to serious conditions like meningitis and septicemia. Immediate medical attention is crucial if these symptoms are observed.
Is Zinoximor a sulfabased antibiotic?
Zinoximor is not a sulfa-based antibiotic. Zinoximor contains cefuroxime, an antibiotic belonging to the cephalosporin class of antibiotic. Specifically, it is a second-generation cephalosporin, hence has a spectrum of activity that covers many gram positive as well as gram negative bacteria. Because of this, it is used in treatment of a variety of infections, including respiratory, gastrointestinal, urinary, and skin/soft-tissue infections.
How do you cure infantigo?
You need a gram negative antibiotic ointment. Go to doctor
How is gram staining useful to health care workers?
The gram stain will stain a bacterium then a particular antibiotic might be effective against it. If the gram stain will not stain that particular bacterium, then that particular antibiotic will not be effective against it. Thus a gram negative bacterium like TB requires a different antibiotic than a gram positive bacterium. However, if several have formed a film, it may contain many types and it becomes harder to kill them. That may require a broad based antibiotic.
Will treatment with transpeptidase eliminate gram positive and gram negative bacteria?
no
Which is the Gram positive diplococci responsible for arthritis?
steptococcus pneumonae
What is gram negative intracellular?
Intracellular gram negative diplococci is the bacterium that causes gonorrhea. Men with this infection may experience frequent urination and penile discharge. Women who have this infection may have mild discharge, pelvic pain, or no symptoms at all.
What type of organism would you look for in a Gram stain of the blood or cerebrospinal fluid in a menin gococcal case?
In a Gram stain of blood or cerebrospinal fluid in a meningococcal case, you would look for Gram-negative diplococci, which are indicative of Neisseria meningitidis. These bacteria are the causative agent of meningococcal disease. Their appearance in the Gram stain can help diagnose the infection.
