Who qualifies for treatment

Our doctors specifically consider Doxycycline as a potential treatment for chlamydia infection, whether diagnosed or clinically suspected after a positive test or known exposure. During the online consultation, the doctor will review your medical history, current symptoms, and any relevant exposure history to assess if Doxycycline is appropriate for your specific case. They look for clear indications of chlamydia and ensure there are no contraindications that would make the treatment unsafe for you.

What Doxycycline actually does (and doesn't do)

Doxycycline is an antibiotic that works by stopping the growth of certain bacteria, including Chlamydia trachomatis. When prescribed for chlamydia, it helps to clear the infection and alleviate symptoms. It is crucial to understand that Doxycycline is not effective against viral infections like herpes or HIV, nor does it treat other STIs such as gonorrhea or syphilis. For chlamydia, it typically takes a few days for symptoms to improve, but it's essential to complete the full course of medication as prescribed, even if you feel better sooner.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Doxycycline can cause side effects. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and increased sensitivity to sunlight. To minimise stomach upset, take Doxycycline with food and plenty of water. If you experience severe allergic reactions (e.g., rash, swelling, difficulty breathing), persistent severe headaches, vision changes, or severe abdominal pain, you should stop taking the medication and seek immediate medical attention. Always read the patient information leaflet provided with your medication.
