Do you need to take another blood test to check if chlamydia is cleared after the prescription?

A normal blood test will not detect the infection. To diagnose chlamydia, you need a urine test or swab of the vagina, urethra, rectum, throat, or eye. Blood tests can look for evidence of past infection with chlamydia, but these are of no use in determining current infection and aren't used to diagnose or treat disease. A positive blood test showing evidence of past infection will not change as a result of antibiotic treatment.
