Who qualifies for treatment

Hi-Doctor's EU-licensed doctors consider Azithromycin only as a potential treatment for chlamydia infection (diagnosed or clinically suspected after a positive test or known exposure). During your private online consultation, the doctor assesses your medical history, current symptoms, and any recent exposure to determine if Azithromycin is the right and safe treatment for you.

The doctor looks for:

  • Evidence or strong suspicion of chlamydia infection.
  • No contraindications to Azithromycin.
  • No drug interactions with your current medications.
  • No severe allergies to macrolide antibiotics.

The doctor remains the gatekeeper, ensuring that any prescribed treatment is safe and appropriate for your individual health situation.

What Azithromycin actually does (and doesn't do)

Azithromycin is an antibiotic that stops the growth of specific bacteria, including Chlamydia trachomatis. For chlamydia, it typically involves a single, high dose. It is effective against bacterial infections that are susceptible to it, but it does not work against viral infections (like the common cold or flu) or other types of STIs such as gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes, or HIV.

It's crucial to understand that Azithromycin only treats the current infection and does not prevent future infections. Always practice safe sex to reduce your risk.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Azithromycin can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects often include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or abdominal pain. These are usually mild and temporary.

More serious, but rare, side effects can include severe allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing), severe diarrhoea (which may indicate a new infection), or liver problems. If you experience any severe or concerning side effects, stop taking the medication immediately and seek urgent medical attention.
