So me and my boyfriend had chlamydia. He got treated with one dose and so did I except I puked about 30-40 minutes after treatment. So I got put on the 7 day treatment. He took his a week ago while I still have to finish my prescription today and have 3 more days to go. Well today we had unprotected sex. I know he has to be retreated now but do I also?

General & Family Physician, Dr. Nishad BN's Response
Hi Thank you for asking HCM. I have gone through your query. Chlamydia can be treated effectively by antibiotics like Azithromycin or doxycycline. Avoid sexual intercourse during the period of treatment and 1 week after the treatment. Single dose of Azithromycin or doxycycline for a week will be helpful for this. You both can restart treatment after consulting your GP. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
