Overview

Strategies for the secondary prevention of chlamydia infection include early detection, treatment of sexual partners, and treatment of other sexually transmitted infections (such as gonorrhea).[1]

Secondary Prevention

  • Strategies for the secondary prevention of chlamydia infection include early detection, treatment of sexual partners, and treatment of sexually transmitted infections (such as gonorrhea).[1]
  • The most recent sex partner should be evaluated and treated, even if the time of the last sexual contact was >60 days before symptom onset or diagnosis.[2]
  • To avoid reinfection, sex partners should be instructed to abstain from condomless sexual intercourse until they and their sex partners have been treated (i.e., after completion of a 7-day regimen) and any symptoms have resolved.[2]
