A member asked:
My partner got tested positive for chlamydia last friday. been having sex this week. should i wait before taking azithromycin or is it safe to take it tomorrow?

Take the drug: You should be treated right away. There is no obvious reason to delay testing -- but if you're tested within 2-3 days of treatment, the result probably will be valid. You should plan on no sex for the next week or so.
