Abiotic sinus kidney: Will Clarithromycin 500mg twice a day treat a UTI? I am on Clarithromycin now for a sinus infection and feel a possible UTI coming on. Will that help? ANS: This would depend on what is causing the UTI. So you need a urine exam and culture. The if the bug is sensitive to Clarithromycin It should help. So to to walk in clinic or your Dr for check.
