Chronic bacterial prostatitis should be demonstrated by microbiological evidence localising infection to the prostate. Strains Neisseria gonorrhoea resistant to ciprofloxacin have been reported in Australia. Appropriate culture and susceptibility tests should be preformed before treatment in order to determine organism susceptibility to ciprofloxacin and after treatment as warranted by the clinical condition. Therapy with ciprofloxacin may be initiated beforeresults of these tests are known; once results become available, appropriate therapy should be continued.
