The Need
M. genitalium is a recognised Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI), treated syndromically, with clinical presentation similar to that of Chlamydia trachomatis.1
Prevalence of M. genitalium infections in the general population ranges from 1-4%2, and its treatment is challenging due to high levels of macrolide resistance.5
Prevalence of M. genitalium infections in the general population ranges from 1-4%2, and its treatment is challenging due to high levels of macrolide resistance.5
- Macrolide resistance testing is recommended by international and local guidelines on management of M. genitalium infections.3,4,6-8
- Macrolide resistance testing can guide appropriate treatment choice enabling Resistance Guided Therapy.6
- Resistance Guided Therapy is clinically demonstrated to improve patient cure rate and overall patient management.9
- Fast detection of macrolide resistance can reduce time to cure, preventing ongoing transmission.9
