Who qualifies for treatment

Hi-Doctor's EU-licensed doctors consider Azithromycin as a potential treatment specifically for diagnosed or clinically suspected chlamydia infection. During your online consultation, the doctor will review:

  • Your medical history and current health conditions.
  • Details of your potential exposure to chlamydia or any positive test results.
  • Any existing allergies or other medications you are taking.
  • Contraindications that might make Azithromycin unsuitable for you.

The doctor's clinical assessment determines if Azithromycin is the appropriate treatment for your specific situation.

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. For chlamydia, it is often prescribed as a single, high dose.

  • Does: Treats chlamydia infection.
  • Doesn't do: Treat other STIs like gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes, or HIV. It is not effective against viral infections or general bacterial infections not caused by susceptible bacteria.

It's important to complete the full course of treatment as prescribed, even if symptoms improve, to ensure the infection is fully cleared and to prevent antibiotic resistance.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Azithromycin can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects include:

  • Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or abdominal pain.
  • Headache.

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

  • Severe allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling of the face/tongue/throat, severe dizziness, trouble breathing).
  • Severe diarrhoea that may contain blood or mucus.
  • Yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice).
  • Irregular heartbeat.

Always follow your doctor's instructions and read the patient information leaflet provided with your medication.
