Can I Take Amoxicillin And Clarithromycin Together?

I finished my course of amoxicillin 500mg this morning and then visited my doctor as I was still feeling unwell. He has prescribed clarithromycin 500mg......my question is ...Can I start taking this tablet today or wait and start new course tomorrow (1 twice daily for 7 days)...........in other words can I mix antibiotics on the same day????

Hello,
Thanks for coming to HCM. You can take Clarithromycin evening dose from same day.
I am assuming here that you are not taking any other medications. Along with antibiotic, you can use symptomatic medical/non-medical remedies to help you feel better soon. Please ensure to complete full course of antibiotic.
Wish you quick recovery!
