A member asked:
How long does it take for doxycycline to stop chlamydia pain. or is there anything additional i can prescribed to relieve urination pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
2 weeks: The Tetracycline is used against Chlamydia, generally for 2 weeks( there is no set period). However as far as pain is concerned in the urethra one can prescribe Pyridium (phenazopyridine) 100 mg Po three times a day for five days.please remember that when a patient contracts one sexually transmitted disease, there is great chance that he has others.severe urethral pain with discharge may indicate gonorrhea.
