Doxycycline dosage to treat chlamydia
Common Questions and Answers about Doxycycline dosage to treat chlamydia
doryx
thank you very much for your detailed response.
I have a clear chlamydia like discharge from my penis but with no pain when urinating and I'm kinda afraid to go to the clinic to get tested because I'm kinda protective about people knowing what I have. Should I just order the 1g azithromycin and take it just to clear this chlamydia like discharge?
gave me 10 day 2 dosage of doxycycline just in case. Swab test for chlamydia was positive and I finished remainder of antiobiotics. Since then I have still felt a mild discomfort (especially after prolonged sitting). I went back in Mid Oct to get HIV test & swab test again. Negative result for chlamydia,HIV, and the dr. even examined my clear fluid under microscope for trich. Dr. gave me 1 dosage of antiobiotic (methadizole however you spell it) just in case for trich infection.
Hey,
Zpack works differently for different illnesses. Years of studies have shown the best treatment for chlamydia is 1g taken at once. That doesn't mean that a higher dosage won’t work, it’s just proven not to be as effective.
What is the dosage of Doxycycline and Azitrox in reactive arthritis caused by chlamydia? Is it the same with the dosage in uncomplicated Chlamydia infection ?
Sorry for my bad english..Greetings and waiting for your reply ...
Yes, all of those meds would more than have cured chlamydia.
If you have symptoms again, you should get tested and not self treat, since it appears it wouldn't be chlamydia.
You really need to talk to your doctor about it. There are other meds available, but I'm hesitant to list any in the event that you try to self-treat and give yourself a severe reaction.
Where did you get tested for chlamydia? Does that doc know that you have all the allergies?
Hello, had some infection fount ecoli in my sperm , my urologist prescribe me doxycycline with bactrim (sulfamethoxazole+trimethoprim) i read about bactrim that helps in e coli ,will doxycycline treat the same? i read that helps with chlamydia and other stds but how about e coli.
as well as sent me to a lab where they tested to see if their was a blockage to see if something was blocking my pee passageway. nothing. all came back looking normal. but it's not though cause i still have symptoms where ONLY AFTER I urinate I experience a burning feeling in my middle urethra. I just want to be normal. I want to CRY. i have no idea how to fix this. what do I do?
How affective is doxycycline 100mg when taken for a period of seven days to cure infections and std's present in the body alone with a shot a penicillin.
If not, make an appointment asap. I sometimes use doxycycline in low (sub-antibiotic effect) doses of 50mg a day or so to treat chronic lid margin disease like blepharitis or acne rosacea. We really don't use it much, as ophthalmologists, for its antibacterial effect but more for its ability to reduce oily secretions on the eyelid margin and some anti-inflammatory effects. I'm a little confused at your regimen.
My question is, is the amount of antibiotics I took and the timing I took them sufficient in treating/preventing Chlamydia/Gonnorhea? Also, I want to actually get tested, but know by consuming the antibiotics I probably will not have an accurate test for several weeks. What is the likelihood if I get tested approximately 1 week after completing treatment using urine NAAT of a false negative even with the recommended treatment?
How long it takes to treat Chlamydia and Gonorrhea with antibiotics.
IN MOST CASES, 1G. OF AZITHROMYCIN IS ENOUGH TO TREAT CHLAMYDIA, ESPECIALLY IF LOCATED IN PENIS OR VAGINA. SOMETIMES ONE NEEDS TO GIVE A HIGHER DOSE IN THE CASE OF ANAL OR THROAT CHLAMYDIA. HOWEVER A SMALL NUMBER OF CASES REQUIRE A ONE WEEK COURSE OF DOXYCYCLINE, ESPECIALLY IF SYMPTOMS PERSIST AFTER THE SINGLE DOSE OF AZITHROMYCIN.
-Its now 18 days after treatment, so how safe is it to have sex with my wife again?
I'm a 21 year-old male, and a few months ago I had protected sex with a woman I didn't know. We used a condom for everything but oral sex and manual stimulation. Several weeks later I began noticing an itch in my urethra, so after around two weeks of it not going away I went to a doctor. He ordered tests and prescribed a single dose of Flagyl (I don't remember the exact dosage).
Doxycycline in the dose you were prescribed never fails to cure chlamydia. (The usual recommendation is for a week of treatment, although some providers routinely prescribe 2 weeks, especially in the UK.) CDC recommends against test of cure unless an atypical antibiotic regimen is used. You don't need retesting at all, regardless of your symptoms. Symptoms typically fade gradually and often may still be present for 5-7 days.
Hello,
Thick penile discharge could be an infection or irritation of the urethra, inflammation of the prostate or from a sexually transmitted disease like Chlamydia. Chlamydia is an infection caused by the Chlamydia trachomatis bacterium and is spread from person-to-person through direct sexual contact. Chlamydia can be passed during vaginal, anal, or oral sex if you do not use a condom every time you have sex.
Please get evaluated for this possibility from your urologist.
I hope it helps.
Even though i dont have any symptoms my family doctor advised me to take Doxycycline 100mg for 15 days.twice a day to be on the safer side..I started the dosage last Saturday..
But two days back i forgot to take a pill only during morning..but following the rest of the dosages..Its been 8 days since i started. Because i missed a pill two days back will the effect of the medicine be diminished in killing the pathogens in case if they are present.
Thanks in advance.
what would be the dosage of azythromycine for a long course? ive read somewhere one month treatment 1 g a week or 500 mg daily for 3 days, is it correct?
can chlamydial infection cause permanent damage to meibomian glands?
I am on a 30 cycle of doxycycline for an unrelated matter. Wouldn’t this kill chlamydia & gonorrhea?
Those are the things I think I’m most worried about. Day 3, no symptoms.
We have several kids and my wife was told she had HPV during one of those pregnancies.
