A member asked:
My friend was prescribed 1g zithromax for chlamydia and then another 1g of zithromax after his symptoms did not alleviate. why not doxycycline?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NGU treatment: Good question. The standard recommendation is that when nongonococcal urethritis (NGU) -- whether due to chlamydia or other causes -- does not clear up after azithromycin, the next treatment should be doxycycline. Your friend should ask his doctor, or get a second opinion.
