[¿Azitromicina como tratamiento contra Chlamydia trachomatis?].

Azithromycin and doxycycline effectiveness has been demonstrated in the treatment of urogenital chlamydiasis, which has remained unchanged for a long time. Autoinoculation has been proposed as a method of reinfection and persistence of the disease in women and probably also owing to azithromycin pharmacokinetics in this tissue. With the new diagnostic methods and tests of cure, a difference has been demonstrated in favor of doxycycline in the treatment of rectal chlamydiasis Antimicrobial resistance has not played a relevant role since no treatment-resistant strains have been found in vivo.
