Does biaxin (clarithromycin) bother you when you drink alcohol?

Yes: Most patients who take biaxin (clarithromycin) have some mild to moderate gastrointestinal upset. Alcohol will likely increase an upset stomach. Additionally, it may result in a person forgetting to take their next dose of biaxin (clarithromycin).
