Can 1500mg of azithromycin cure chlamydia?
4 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
Possible: Usual dose is 1000 mg, but best to be under medical supervision, because there can resistance to this drug in some cases, and they will know how best to guide you after. Also, all current and recent sex partners should be screened and treated

Chlamydia treatment: Treatment for a chlamydial infection is Azithromycin 1 g orally in a single dose. 1500mg is more than you need, but should not be harmful to you. Make sure that your partner gets treated and that you abstain from unprotected intercourse for a week to ensure adequate treatment and prevent transmission to anyone else.
