What should you do if you think you have chlamydia?
If you think you have chlamydia, go to your local health department, family planning center, primary care provider, or urgent care to be checked. If you have chlamydia, you need to be treated to get rid of the bacteria. You should get testing and treatment as soon as possible. Until you get these results, you should avoid oral, anal and vaginal sex, and genital-genital contact. Don't even do these things with a condom until you've been tested.
How long does it take azithromycin to clear all symptoms of chlamydia?
Per CDC recommendations, patients being treated should avoid oral, anal, and vaginal intercourse (even with a condom) until 7 days have passed since the last partner completed treatment with azithromycin (Zithromax, Zmax). Chlamydia can damage the body, but the germ is gone after effective treatment is completed. Even though azithromycin treats chlamydia with a single dose, it doesn't work immediately. After taking one dose treatment, it continues to work in your body over the course of the next week.
Can antibiotics get rid of chlamydia?
The best antibiotic for chlamydia depends on patient characteristics like age, medical history, allergy status, and other medications. At this point, 1 g of azithromycin is the cheapest and easiest alternative. Both this treatment and doxycycline 100 mg twice daily for seven days work equally well.
