Taking azitromycin for clymidia 4 tabs 1 dose on my 5 day want to know can i have sex or not? if not why ? if so what precautions do i take?

You might still: be contagious. You should refrain from unprotected sex until you complete your course of antibiotics and have a negative follow up culture. Antibiotic sensitivity depends also on locality ,so it is best to discuss with your doctor.
