More Antibiotics?
I took 400 mg of suprax to treat a gonorrhea infection two days ago. Today I exposed myself to the bacteria again through sexual contact. Do I need another dose of antibiotics or will the previous dose suffice being that it is still in my system?

If you had tested positive, 2 days is not enough time for the medication to work properly. Not only have you possibly been re-infected, you could have infected or re-infected your partner.
No sex for 7 days after you take your meds, and no sex for 7 days past when your partner gets treated.
You might need to be re-treated. You should call your doctor.
If you are self treating, stop doing that, and see your doctor. You could have a different infection and need a different medication.
