Best Answer

Doxycyline is one of the antibiotics prescribed for chlamydia. However, veterinary drugs are designed, produced and packaged for animals, not humans: they are not necessarily subject to the same quality control regulations as are drugs for human use. See your health care provider for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.
