Study of two antibiotics during pregnancy
Treatments studied
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study looks at two antibiotics given during pregnancy: ceftriaxone (given as a shot or IV) for infections other than syphilis, and benzathine penicillin G (given as a shot) for syphilis. The goal is to learn more about how these medicines affect pregnant women and their babies.

This Phase 3 study tests whether cefixime can treat primary, secondary, or early latent syphilis. It may help by offering another effective antibiotic option, including for some people who also have HIV (if well controlled).
This study measures how common medicines move through a breastfeeding parent’s milk and checks safety in both the parent and breastfed baby. It may help doctors use these medicines more safely while you continue breastfeeding.
This study tests whether taking an antibiotic (penicillin) during pregnancy can prevent syphilis infection in women who are at higher risk. If you are pregnant and have certain risk factors, this trial may help keep you and your baby safe from syphilis.
This study tests whether giving oral antibiotics at home is as safe and effective as the usual injections for newborns exposed to syphilis during pregnancy. It is for babies who appear healthy at birth.
This trial tests a better treatment for babies born with congenital syphilis. It aims to find out if a shorter, simpler antibiotic regimen works as well as the current standard treatment.
This study compares a pill form of the antibiotic cefuroxime to an IV (intravenous) version for treating kidney infections during pregnancy. It aims to see if the oral option works just as well, which could make treatment easier and more comfortable for pregnant women.
