Common Side Effect: Nausea and belly pain are a common side effects of azithromycin at the dose used to treat chlamydia. Taking an antacid that far after the azithromycin dose is unlikely to change the antibiotic effect, so don't worry about that. Please be sure that you were also tested for gonorrhea since co-infection with chlamydia is a common problem. I hope that you are feeling better.
