Doxycycline is certainly not a drug of choice to treat syphilis. Per the CDC,

"Penicillin G, administered parenterally, is the preferred drug

for treatment of all stages of syphilis" (p. 23). If a person is allergic to penicillin, possibly doxycycline would be used. Also per the CDC, doxycycline is used to treat urethritis, chlamydia, or gonorrhea. In addition, drugs.com states doxycycline can also used for acne or gum disease as well.

Due to widespread use of cipro for a variety of infections, many strains of gonorrhea are now resistant. Ciprofloxacin is no longer recommended as a treatment for gonorrhea. If your doctor prescribes ciprofloxacin for gonorrhea, ask if a third-generation cephalosporin would be more appropriate for you.
It can be; but the CDC recommends Ceftriaxone 125 mg IM in a single dose or Cefixime 400 mg orally in a single dose.
Cifran 500 does not treat gonorrhea.

4 times a day


Cipro is now not recommended to treat gonorrhea; it does not cure the infection in 10% of the cases.
Yes, it is possible.

Doxycycline is an antibiotic used for the treatment of chlamydia. You should take it for the entire length of time it was prescribed - do not stop early if you feel better.

Doxicillin will not cure gonorrhea. The normal treatment is ceftriaxone 250mg. Due to increasing antibiotic resistance, there are relatively few treatment options.

It takes approximately 400-500 mgs of doxycycline for at least two weeks for advanced syphilis - 200 mgs is not enough.

If the doctor prescribed doxycycline and ciprofloxacin for chlamydia can you take both or should you choose one?

It sounds like your doctor is treating you for chlamydia with doxycycline, and against the possibility of undetected gonorrhea with ciprofloxacin. However, Cipro is no longer recommended for treatment of gonorrhea in 2011 as I'm typing this answer. Call your doctor to find out what was intended with the two medications. There may be some other explanation specific to your situation. If the doctor was trying to cover gonorrhea, ask him or her to choose a medication from the current CDC treatment recommendations.
