No: No, medications for animals are not at the same dosages as for humans. You will likely under treat yourself and won't clear the infection. Please go see your doctor for an evaluation. Your doctor has treated sexually transmitted infections (STIs) hundreds of times. As doctors we don't care that you have the infection we just want to treat it before something bad (tubal damage) happens.
