Is amoxicillin good treatment for chlamydia in men?
Answered by Dr. Ashwani Kumar
Chlamydia Trachomatis is an infection that is cured by antibiotics. The most commonly recommended antibiotics for chlamydia are doxycycline and azithromycin. Similarly, the CDC also recommends alternative Chlamydia treatment options such as erythromycin, levofloxacin, or ofloxacin. However, that amoxicillin is an antibiotic doesn’t necessarily mean that the drug is effective against chlamydia.
Amoxicillin is not the preferred option for treating chlamydia; however, healthcare providers recommend this drug to cure chlamydia in pregnant people.
