Azithromycin has a 97% cure rate, and doxycycline 98% according ot the CDC.

Chlamydia can cause damage to the body, but the infection is easily curable with antibiotics. After effective treatment, the germ is gone. Patients should abstain from oral, anal, and vaginal sex before treatment and for 1-2 weeks after treatment is completed. If you have concerns about continuing infection, talk with your health care provider about appropriate timing for test of cure. CDC recommends retesting in two to three months to ensure reinfection did not occur.
