Hey thanks for your faith in the health care magic.i have gone through your question and i understood your problemSince bacteria cause chlamydia, the disease can often be treated with antibiotics. Azithromycin is an antibiotic usually prescribed in a single dose, while doxycycline must be taken twice per day for about one week.
There are other antibiotics that your doctor may prescribe. No matter which antibiotic you are given, you will need to follow the dosage instructions carefully to make sure the infection clears up fully.
