Who qualifies for treatment

Hi-Doctor's EU-licensed doctors consider Azithromycin primarily for chlamydia infection. During your online consultation, the doctor will assess your medical history, symptoms, and potential exposure to determine if Azithromycin is an appropriate treatment for you. This includes reviewing:

• Your medical history and current health status.
• Any known allergies or existing conditions.
• Confirmation or suspicion of chlamydia infection (e.g., positive test result, known exposure).
• Other medications you may be taking that could interact with Azithromycin.

The doctor's clinical assessment is crucial to ensure your safety and the effectiveness of the treatment.

What Azithromycin actually does (and doesn't do)

Azithromycin is an antibiotic that works by stopping the growth of certain bacteria. When prescribed for chlamydia, it targets the specific bacteria responsible for the infection, helping to clear it from your system. A single dose is often effective for chlamydia.

It's important to understand:

• Azithromycin treats bacterial infections like chlamydia; it is not effective against viral infections (such as herpes, HIV, or HPV) or other sexually transmitted infections like gonorrhea or syphilis.
• It typically takes a few days for the antibiotic to fully clear the infection. Follow your doctor's instructions precisely.
• It does not prevent future infections, so safe sex practices remain essential.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Azithromycin can cause side effects. Most are mild and temporary. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. Less common but more serious side effects can occur, such as severe allergic reactions, liver problems, or heart rhythm changes.

You should stop taking Azithromycin and seek immediate medical attention if you experience:

• Severe allergic reaction (rash, itching/swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing).
• Severe abdominal pain or persistent vomiting.
• Yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice).
• Irregular heartbeat.
