Common Questions and Answers about Zithromax for chlamydia

zithromax

Avatar f tn ve been reading that 2 gm would be necessary for Gonorrhea and 1 gm would take care of Chlamydia. I called him today to make sure he prescribed the proper dose and he reassurred me that 1 gram is all that is needed. Is he over seeing this?
Avatar f tn Hi I am currently three days on Zithromax (treating chlamydia) and I have a light sometimes darker Orange discharge with strings of blood in them when I wipe. The consistency is stretchy and I’m pretty worried. Me and my partner (also taken Zithromax one day oral medicine) haven’t had sex since our treatment (same day), as told to wait seven days. Could it be the antibiotics fighting the infection?
Avatar f tn Just before I went on holiday I was tested for chlamydia. I got the result when I arrived- and I tested positive. So I went to local doctor in Italy and he prescribed 500mg Zithromax (12 tablets) and said take one a day for 12 days... that seems a lot. I took one yesterday and one today... not sure what to do now! Most sites say 1000mg is enough!
Avatar n tn The provider told you wrong, zithromax is used for chlamydia. The shot you were given was for gonorrhea.
Avatar n tn I presume your urine or a swab from your penis was the specimen tested for chlamydia. If your urine or swab test was positive for chlamydia it would be quite unusual for the same specimen to have not been tested for gonorrhea at the same time. Thus one of the first things I would suggest is for you to call your doctor’s office and see if perhaps you were tested for gonorrhea. If so and the test was negative, you have nothing further to worry about.
Avatar f tn It works by fighting bacteria within the body, so yes it should cure chlamydia. The usual treatment for chlamydia is a single dose of four pills when diagnosed, but the Zithro will do the same :D Mr.
Avatar f tn 3 weeks is the normal amount of time to wait to be retested, yes. There's a possibility that you had chlamydia to begin with, which was cured, but that you also had something else, say mycoplasma or ureaplasma, which wasn't cured. So while your test might come back negative for chlamydia, that does not necessarily mean you might not have something else. If I were you, I'd probably just get a urinalysis done.
Avatar m tn i dont think if it is chlamydia or gonorreha my cousin said drink zithromax. i take zithromax 500 for 3 days now i can urinate comfortable now. how can i assure that i am fully recovered?
Avatar m tn It effectively treats or prevents syphilis and chlamydia, and probably gonorrhea -- 1 gram is on the low side for reliable activity against gonorrhea, but is still at least 90% effective. My only other advice is that you keep those condoms happy for the next time! I hope those comments are helpful.
Avatar n tn Recently i had protected sex, after about couple of minutes my condom broke. I after noticing it i pulled out. But after a couple days i started to get this yellow stuff coming from my penis.
Avatar n tn You should notice a decrease in symptoms by now. Have you noticed that or is the symptoms still the same?
Avatar m tn I went back to the doctor and got treated again for chlamydia and took another test. The results came back negative for chlamydia and gonorrhea, but even a week after these results discharge from my penis still persist. I had also gotten treated with Metrondizale for trich but symptoms still persisted after that. It is now almost April and am still having discharge in the morning and after urinating with a mild sting and itch after urinating.
Avatar f tn I had chlamydia and negative for gonorrhea and had yeast infection. I was prescribed zithromax, which cured it when I went back to the clinic. Also, my pap smear was all normal. This was all about 3 months ago. Now, for the past week, I've been having all the same symptoms I had when I got diagnosed with chlamydia: itching in vagina, bleeding in between periods, thick whitish-brownish (I guess from the blood), with an odor. My panties are constantly ruined from this.
Avatar f tn hiv) in April I took 2 zithromax pills and told to that that it would take a week for the Chlamydia to clear out of my system. Well the zithromax gave me a severe yeast infection and I was still having slight discharge, so went back to the gyno 2 weeks after taking the zithromax.
Avatar m tn I have been given 2 x 500 mg capsules for my chlamydia infection but as i don't like taking tablets I'v opened the capsules and poured the contents into a cup of tea with 1 Teaspoon full of sugar. To make sure i have consumed the full dose i made another cup of tea in the same cup and consumed it again. Two weeks later my older brother has told me the heat would of rendered the anti-biotic useless and that i still would have chlamydia.
Avatar m tn After a few days however my testicles ached after i drank a large amount of liqour. I took another zithromax dosage and this time 1g on the first day and 500mg for another two days. I also took doxy 100mg. bid for two weeks but my testicles still hurt. Was the treatment enough or a failure? Also my wife whom i had sex during the supposed incubation period also took 1g of zithromax and 5 days of 100mg. doxy bid.
Avatar f tn The doctor took a swab and diagnosed me Chlamydia in about 10mins and said the Zithromax had failed. Two days later I was extremely suspicious so I went to a lab. They did every STI Test possible for urine plus a blood test (IGG and IGM) for Chlamydia and Ghono. All came back negative. The last month or so I have had a discomfort in a testicle which is only painful if I touch it and paranoia took a hold of me again. Could it be Chlamydia like the first doc said? Or something unrelated?
1394684 tn?1280252985 After treatment my doctor called me saying that my test results for chlamydia came back positive.She gave me zithromax(azithromycin) to take,two red pills I took in one single dose,After I lefted the office I experienced the worst diarrhea of my life hours later.Is zithroma 100% effective?Is my chlamydia gone?
Avatar n tn BUT now that you have taken zithromax, testing for chlamydia/gonorrhea is not recommended until about 4 weeks after you took the medication or you may get a false result. And if it is chlamydia, the zithromax will cure it.
Avatar m tn I have been taking Zithromax 1 capsule a day for 3 days. Is this enought to clean the Chlamydia and gonorrhea ? I had it years ago and remember had to be on antibiotics for a week!
Avatar f tn m worried, I shamefully cheated on my wife one time only on the 5th of June, 5 days later I strted to need to pee all the time, I visited my doctor on the 15th June and he tested me for Clymadia and Gonnorhea and gave me 1 gram of Zithromax to take straight away. The results came back negative. 2 weeks later the need to urinate came back again, and 4 times since then I've had a tiny amount of clear discharge in the morning.
