"Strong" and "weak" are layperson's concepts of antibiotics. They have no clinical meaning. Azithromycin and doxycycline are highly effective for treating chlamydia. Ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin are equally effective but cost significantly more, with no advantage in cure. Erythromycin is also effective, but difficult to take multiple times daily and is more likely to cause side effects.

Chlamydia treatment failure is rare. People who still have chlamydia after treatment usually got reinfected.
