Racedox is an antibiotic used to treat a range of bacterial infections, including chlamydia. Racedox is the first choice treatment option for chlamydia because it is proven to be highly effective .
Usually, 1 tablet is taken twice a day for 7 days.
Chlamydia is the most common bacterial sexually transmitted disease (STI) in the world. A recent WHO estimate put chlamydia infection rates at 127 million per year . It’s most common amongst teenagers and young people, and is transmitted through unprotected sex.
Common symptoms include:
Some people do not experience symptoms when they have chlamydia. It’s advised that men and women under 25 who regularly engage in unprotected sex get tested for chlamydia once a year.
To get treatment for chlamydia, you need to provide a positive test result. You can get a test at a diagnostic lab or hospital and upload the result for our doctors to review.
If your partner has tested positive for chlamydia you can order treatment without testing yourself. Racedox is also an anti-malarial treatment and is taken by those travelling to areas where there is a high risk of malaria.
Racedox kills the infection by attacking the bacteria that cause it and stopping it from multiplying. Racedox passes into the bacteria and binds to the protein chains within it. This weakens the bacteria and prevents them from thriving.
You should be infection free within 7-14 days of finishing the course (but you should still wait two full weeks until after finishing the course before having sex).

If you don’t have a positive test result but your partner has tested positive, you’ll need to take a test before you start your course of treatment.
If you’ve got a positive test result, your doctor will usually advise you to take one 100mg tablet twice daily for 7 days.
You should take Racedox as follows:
Racedox takes about 7 days to kill the chlamydia infection, although some clinical studies show that it can take as little as 3 days .
After finishing your course of treatment you should wait for at least 7 days before indulging in vaginal, anal, oral sex or sharing toys so that you don’t risk passing on the infection to someone else.
If you make a mistake when taking Racedox, it’s important that you contact your doctor. If you’re taking it for chlamydia you may need to restart the course or take a different treatment. It’s really important not to have sex until you have completed a full course of treatment exactly as prescribed by your doctor because you risk passing on the infection to someone else.
If you forget to take your medicine, you shouldn't take a double dose. Take your tablet as soon as you remember, and then continue the course of treatment as prescribed.
You should contact our doctors if you have any questions about how to take your medicine.
