Hello doctor i have taken azithromycin for chlamydia for 3 days -500mg, 1gm, 1gm respectively. should i have to taken it again due to overdose.?

You are treated.: The standard dosing when using Azithromycin to treat chlamydia is a one time dose of 1 gram. You are already treated. Make sure your partner is treated, and then you should be rescreened for re-infection in 3 months. Make sure you also had gonorrhea, HIV and syphillis testing as you are at risk.
