Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I tested positive for chlamydia IgA IgG. Negative IgM. I am HIV positive but undetectable viral load and CD4 724. Recommended antibiotic? Thanks.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com. A high title of IgA and IgG antibodies to chlamydia generally indicates active infection but it is an auxiliary test and should also be supplemented by a more specific nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) on a urine sample. A NAAT test specifically detects chlamydia antigen. Do you have any symptoms such as burning sensation on passing urine or urethral discharge? I suggest Doxycycline 10 mg, twice daily for seven to 10 days or Azithromycin 0.04 oz single dose as the drug of choice for treatment of chlamydia.
