A member asked:

I found out there's an interaction between glimepiride and clarithromycin, which i just started (my doc didn't tell me). what should i do?

Actually: You are right there is a mild interaction, and you can actually take both, and be disciplined with measuring your glucose before meals and at bed-time. Do not worry
