Brief Answer:
Bactrim will not treat chlamydia!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

These medications would be poor choices for the treatment of chlamydia and gonorrhea. I will recommend that you doctor uses a one time dose of ceftriaxone(Gonorrhea) and doxycycline(chlamydia) to treat these infections.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Thanks for trusting us with your health question today!
