Authors' objectives: The Institut national d'excellence en santé et en services sociaux (INESSS) has developed a series of five clinical guides for the pharmacological treatment of sexually transmitted and blood-borne infections (STBBIs). The guides address the following conditions: •Chlamydia trachomatis infection and Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection; •Genital herpes; •Mucopurulent cervicitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, urethritis, epididymitis/epididymo-orchitis; •Condylomas; •Syphilis. The guides are meant to provide various practitioners (general practitioners, specialists, pharmacists and nurses) with support for managing the pharmacological treatment of patients with an STBBI. These clinical tools have been adapted from the Canadian Guidelines on Sexually Transmitted Infections. In order to complete the adaptation and to disseminate the latest, most accurate information promoting the optimal use of drug products, INESSS worked closely with an expert committee on STBBIs, with support from the relevant professional bodies, associations and federations.
