Special attention to this infection is conditioned by a high risk for development of complications on the part of the reproductive system in both women and men. The ability of Chlamydia to affect various tissues accounts for a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations of urogenital pathologies: urethritis, vulvovaginitis, cervicitis, endometritis, salpingitis, epididymitis, prostatitis, proctitis, and also extragenital forms of disease. Taking into account a possibility of transition of Chlamydia infection into a latent stage with subsequent development of a chronic persisting course, early and adequate management of infection is of considerable importance. Etiotropic therapy of Chlamydia infection employs antibacterial drugs capable of penetrating into cells. Tetracycline antibiotics are the most effective drugs of choice administered as part of complex therapy. Minolexin is a tetracycline antibiotic that demonstrates the best effectiveness in the fight against infectious agents affecting the urogenital tract. The article presents the author’s clinical experience of using minolexin for management of urogenital chlamydiosis in 60 patients.
