ABSTRACT
To identify areas for improvement, this retrospective observational analysis examines syphilis treatment and subsequent follow-up practices amid a nationwide intramuscular penicillin G benzathine (BPG) shortage. Outcomes from 94 neonates confirm the value of BPG in the management of congenital syphilis, reveal opportunities for provider education and highlight the need to reserve BPG for neonates in times of shortage.
