Syphilis treatment

2023-09-15 09:40:17
My VDRL test is 1:4 reactive, TPHA is 1:1280 reactive. My doctor gave me two penicillin 12 lakhs injections in a single day on each buttocks and told me to test after 1 month. I want to know whether just two shots would be enough or should I take up to four weeks?
