A member asked:
Could someone take clarithromycin for lung infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If it was prescribed: Clarithromycin (biaxin) is an antibiotic that is used for multiple types of infections including sinus/lung infections. So it is generally safe as long as it is prescribed for you and you are taking it as directed by physician.
