These are probably uncommon causes of urethritis in males, but may be a cause of 'non-gonococcal non-chlamydial urethritis'. There are several different emperic treatment recommendations but a commonly used one is azithromycin 1 g single dose.

The BC Centre for Disease Control can, however, send urine for DNA PCR to Winnipeg to test for both bacteria under special circumstances.
