Drug of choice to treat syphilis

Acyclovir
Penicillin G
Fluconazole
Chlorhexidine Gluconate

The correct answer is: Penicillin G

The drug of choice to treat syphilis is Penicillin G. Syphilis is a bacterial infection caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum. Penicillin has been the mainstay of treatment for syphilis for many years due to its effectiveness in killing the bacteria responsible for the infection. Acyclovir is an antiviral medication used to treat herpes simplex virus infections, not syphilis. Fluconazole is an antifungal medication used to treat fungal infections, and Chlorhexidine Gluconate is an antiseptic commonly used in oral hygiene products but is not the appropriate treatment for syphilis.
