No problem: This isn't a problem and doesn't risk reinfection. However, all people with chlamydia should be retested 3 months later, to detect both reinfection and the occasional cases of treatment failure. However, I wonder if you received the correct dose of azithromycin, usually 1 gram taken all at once. If only 500 mg, ask your doctor about re-treatment or about maybe earlier re-testing.
