Recheck!: Although the antibiotics are normally very effective some times the organism is resistant or not treated completely. If you test positive you should be re-treated. It occasionally takes time for the symptoms to resolve however, chlamydia often times has no symptoms in males. Be sure and get re-checked. Good luck.

A few days: It should only take a few days before you notice the resolution of your symptoms after starting or having had treatment. If your symptoms either never went away within 5-7 days or came back after that time, then you need to see your doctor again and likely receive more treatment.
