Can Ammoxicillin Be Taken To Cure Chlamydia And Its Dosage?

I am a 20 year old male and after hours of online research and past experience, I am certain I have contracted chlamydia due to having unprotected sex. I know that I should see a DR. and get a prescription, but due to my job I have little time to do so. However, I have a prescription of 500 mg ammoxicillin that I didn t use when i was prescribed them a month ago. I was looking to see if ammox. treated chlamydia, as i was getting very mixed responses through my online research. would i be wasting valuable time in taking these? And if not, how often should i take them? I am a 20 year old male and after hours of online research and past experience, I am certain I have contracted chlamydia due to having unprotected sex.
