A member asked:

Will a 1000mg dose of azithromycin cure chlamydia in a male that has had the condition for three to four weeks?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: A single dose of 1,000mg of Azithromycin has a 97% cure rate for Chlamydia. Make sure your partner is treated so the germ doesn't bounce back and forth between the two of you. Also, use condoms to decrease the likelihood of contracting chlamydia or more dangerous STDs.
