Azithromycin is a prescription oral antibiotic commonly prescribed for the treatment of uncomplicated genital chlamydia caused by Chlamydia trachomatis. It is FDA-approved for this indication and is often selected for individuals seeking a single-dose treatment option under medical guidance.
How to Use:
Azithromycin is typically taken as a single oral dose administered all at once.
May be taken with or without food
Do not split or save for later use—take all tablets at once as directed by your healthcare provider
Important: To reduce the risk of reinfection, individuals are typically advised to avoid sexual activity for at least 7 days after treatment and until all recent sexual partners have also received treatment.
Additional Notes:
Follow up with a healthcare provider if symptoms persist
Retesting is typically recommended after 3 months
Azithromycin may be considered a first-line option in cases where doxycycline is not appropriate, based on current treatment guidelines
