How long does it take azithromycin to clear all symptoms of chlamydia?

Azithromycin is an antibiotic used to treat a variety of bacterial infections, including chlamydia. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends a single 1-gram dose of azithromycin to treat chlamydia. This dose is usually sufficient to clear all symptoms of the infection within a few days to a week. However, some people may experience persistent symptoms for a longer period of time. If symptoms persist, it is important to see a doctor to rule out other possible causes.
