Who qualifies for treatment

Our EU-licensed doctors consider Azithromycin as a potential treatment primarily for diagnosed or clinically suspected chlamydia infection. During your online consultation, the doctor will carefully review your medical history, symptoms, and any recent exposure to determine if Azithromycin is the right treatment for you. They assess:

  • Your chlamydia test results (if available).
  • Any recent unprotected sexual contact.
  • Symptoms such as unusual discharge, pain during urination, or abdominal discomfort.
  • Your full medical history, including allergies and other medications you are taking.
  • Any contraindications that might make Azithromycin unsuitable for you.

The doctor's priority is your safety and ensuring appropriate treatment.

What Azithromycin actually does (and doesn't do)

Azithromycin is an antibiotic that works by stopping the growth of certain bacteria, including Chlamydia trachomatis, the bacterium responsible for chlamydia infection. It is typically prescribed as a single, high dose for this condition. While effective for chlamydia, Azithromycin does not treat viral infections like herpes or HIV, nor is it effective against other STIs such as gonorrhea or syphilis. It is not a general-purpose antibiotic for all bacterial infections. For chlamydia, it usually clears the infection within a few days, but it's important to complete the full prescribed dose.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Azithromycin can cause side effects. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. These are usually mild and temporary. More serious but rare side effects can include severe allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling), liver problems, or an irregular heartbeat. If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, or signs of an allergic reaction, stop taking the medication immediately and seek urgent medical attention. Always read the patient information leaflet provided with your medication.
