How are chlamydial infections treated?
Chlamydia infections are treated with specific antibiotic medications. It is very important to follow instructions carefully, take all of the medication and return for a follow-up visit if your health care provider requests this. Your partner or partners should also be treated, even if they have no symptoms. This will prevent your getting infected again. You should avoid sex until treatment is completed and your partner or partners have been fully treated as well. Early treatment for chlamydia is very successful and can prevent later complications of this infection.
