A member asked:
If i had sex with a prostitute at 7pm and took azithromycin 1g orally 14 hours later, will the antibiotics kill the possible chlamydia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Likely: The antibiotic you took is sufficient for treatment of chlamydia. You may visit this site for more info: https://www.cdc.gov/std/tg2015/chlamydia.htm However, Chlamydia should be the least of your concerns. See your doctor about getting tested for HIV and hepatitis. If you are within 72 hours of exposure you may wish to take post-exposure prophylaxis for HIV.
