A member asked:
Will minocycline cure chlaymidia? test positive and have started 100mg twice per day as had some?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe/not...and..: This is not the choice drug for treatment. If you were to take a high enough dose for long enough it might fix chlamydia but not the usual STD germs taht can be caught at the same exposure.
