Which antibiotic is recommended for the treatment of syphilis?

  1. Piperacillin/tazobactam

  2. Dicloxacillin

  3. Penicillin G Benzathine

  4. Ceftriaxone

The correct answer is: Penicillin G Benzathine

Penicillin G Benzathine is the recommended antibiotic for the treatment of syphilis. It is the first-line treatment for this infection according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines. Piperacillin/tazobactam, Dicloxacillin, and Ceftriaxone are not the preferred treatments for syphilis. Therefore, Penicillin G Benzathine is the correct choice as it has shown high efficacy in treating syphilis infections.
