Injected Antibiotic For Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, Smoked Marijuana After 2 Hours. Will It Have Adverse Effect?

hello, i just received treatment for both gonorrhea and chlamydia. they injected me with an antibiotic for the gonorrhea, and prescribed azithromycin for the chlamydia. both were single doses.

About two hours later, i smoked a marijuana cigar with my friends. I am worried that this might have an adverse effect on the medication. Will it? i do not plan to continue smoking until all is cleared up.

Hi,
Thanks for using healthcare magic.

I have gone through your available history.

Antibiotics will not have interaction with marijuana cigar. It is strongly advisable to stop taking it further as marijuana has its own side effects.

Please avoid sex until your infections are clear.

Thanks.
