HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

There are antibiotics that can effectively treat chlamydia, your partner would also need to be treated.

There should be at least a 7 day period of no sexual intercourse after the antibiotics are used to ensure there is no reinfection.

All medications are associated with potential side effects but risk associated with untreated chlamydia are more than those with medication.
Side effects may or may not occur , most use with no problem at all.

I hope this helps
