Question: I'm a male who got oral sex about 1 month ago. I'm pretty sure I may have gotten gonerrhea, I don't have medical coverage right now. Can I buy Cephalsporin?

Brief Answer:
You need a prescription for sure

Detailed Answer:
Hi. Unfortunately there is no way to buy a Cephalosporin type antiobiotic, or any Antibiotic for that matter, without a prescription.

What I would suggest is that you head to your local Urgent care facility or City Clinic, if nothing is around, head for the ER.

You should be able to get a physician to examine you and give you a prescription on the cheap.

I just don't want you to delay treatment, the infection can progress and become life threatening if it really is Gonorrhea.

I hope this helps.
