A member asked:
I took a course of clarithromycin 250mg for an ear infection. a week after the course i did some sti tests which came back negative. could the antibiotics have affected the results or cleared up something i did have unknowingly?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, that's possible. Clarithromycin could have cured an unknown chlamydial infection, and maybe gonorrhea or syphilis.
