Yes: One gram of zithromax should clear up your chlamydia. But you could need to be retreated.

Talk to your doctor: Seven days of azythromycin should be more than enough to resolve uncomplicated chlymidia. Also, retesting for cure is not usually needed after Azithromycin therapy. However your doctors may have specific reasons for wanting to do this. Talk to them.
