A member asked:

Azithromyocin 2po then 1po for 4 days for chlamydia. i took two, then one, then all 4 together on same day on monday. symptoms still there, that norma?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Could be: Azithromycin has about a three-day half-life. This means that the drug is still working for almost a week after your last does. I wouldn't worry that your symptoms have resolved completely. But if in a couple of weeks you're still feeling uncomfortable, i would call your doctor.
