Who qualifies for treatment

Hi-Doctor's EU-licensed doctors consider Azithromycin primarily for suspected or confirmed chlamydia infections. During your private online consultation, the doctor will carefully review your medical history, symptoms, and any relevant test results you provide. They look for specific indicators of chlamydia, assess your overall health, and check for contraindications that might make Azithromycin unsuitable for you. This ensures the treatment is safe and appropriate 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's typically prescribed as a single, high dose. It is effective against bacterial infections but does not treat viral infections (like the flu or common cold) or other sexually transmitted infections such as gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes, or HIV. It's crucial to understand that Azithromycin is not a general-purpose antibiotic for any bacterial infection; its use is carefully considered for specific conditions like chlamydia.

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, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. 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, you should stop taking the medication immediately and seek urgent medical attention. Your Hi-Doctor will provide full information on potential side effects with your prescription.
