The CDC reports that chlamydia is still responding to doxycycline, and does not recommend test of cure after treatment. However, CDC does recommend repeat testing in three months for all patients treated for chlamydia, because reinfection is so common.
Doxycycline is a kind of antibiotics as the most common treatment for chlamydia. As we all know, antibiotics will cause drug resistance and can be easily recurrent. Herbal medicine like Fuyan Pill maybe a better option compared with antibiotics, because it is made from Chinese herbs without any side effects and drug resistance.
No. It does not affect.
Doxycycline cures chlamydia. The typical dose is 100 mg twice daily for seven days.
In the US, typically azithromycin or doxycycline, same as for women.
Doxycycline has many different uses. In some cases it should not be the only medicine used. In some situations it is quite dangerous. Ask your doctor.
Nitrofurantoin does not cure chlamydia. You should see a doctor and have a treatment. Typical treatments for chlamydia include doxycycline, azithromycin or herbal medicine called Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill.
Chlamydia is a bacterial sexually transmitted infection. It is treated with antibiotics, usually 1g of azithromycin in a single dose or 100 mg doxycycline twice daily for seven days.
Both medications are listed by the CDC for treatment of chlamydia. Doxycycline used to be cheaper, and azithromycin easier to take, but since the 2013 doxycycline shortage started, azithromycin is both cheaper and easier.
Depends on the clinical situation. For chlamydia without symptoms found on screening test, typically 100 mg twice daily for 7 days. For PID, treatment is longer and is combined with another medication. See your health care provider for information specific to your situation.
Doxy is typically used for chlamydia at 100 mg twice daily for 7 days for asymptomatic infection. Duration may vary depending on the individual situation.
Yes, you can wear a tampon while taking doxycycline, no matter the reason you're taking it. Even if you are being treated for chlamydia, wearing a tampon will not affect the treatment.
Chlamydia is a serious bacterial infection. It is not suggested that a person treat themselves for Chlamydia. There are many locations that provide free testing and treatment services. Leaving Chlamydia untreated can result in serious, long term medical consequences. I suggest you consult a medical provider about the proper course of treatment.
There are no special food restrictions or recommendations for people with chlamydia, except that if you're being treated with doxycycline, you should separate dairy food and your antibiotic by three hours.
