Participants receiving Gepotidacin
Participants will receive Gepotidacin orally at the study site during the Baseline (Day 1) visit followed by self-administration of a second oral dose as an outpatient 10 to 12 hours after the first dose.
Gepotidacin
Gepotidacin will be administered as 3000 milligram (mg) oral dose (4 X 750 mg tablets) at the study site followed by 3000 mg oral dose (4 X 750 mg tablets) as an outpatient. Each dose should be taken after food consumption and with water.
Participants receiving Ceftriaxone plus Azithromycin
Participants will receive a single IM dose of Ceftriaxone plus a single oral dose of Azithromycin at the study site during the Baseline (Day 1) visit.
Ceftriaxone
Ceftriaxone is available as sterile powder for reconstitution. It will be administered as one 500-mg IM dose at the study site.
Azithromycin
Azithromycin will be administered as 1000 mg oral dose (2 X 500 mg tablets) at the study site. Dose should be taken after food consumption and with water.

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
* Participants having body weight of \>45 kilogram (kg).
* Participants having clinical suspicion of a urogenital gonococcal infection with or without pharyngeal and/or rectal gonococcal infection and have one of the following: male participants with purulent yellow, green, or white urethral discharge or female participants with abnormal cervical or vaginal mucopurulent discharge upon physical examination; or a prior positive culture for N. gonorrhoeae from up to 5 days before screening (as long as the participant has not received any treatment for this infection); or a Gram or equivalent stain (urogenital specimens only) positive or presumptive for Gram-negative intracellular diplococci from up to 5 days before screening (as long as the participant has not received any treatment for this infection); or a prior positive nucleic acid amplification test assay for N. gonorrhoeae from up to 7 days before screening (as long as the participant has not received any treatment for this infection).
