Supplement × Prescription·Evidence index
PubMed indexes 3 records that name Clarithromycin and Probiotics together, either in the title or in an interaction, co-administration, or pharmacokinetic context. Each one is listed below with its study design and, where the abstract states one, the authors’ own conclusion, quoted and linked. This page reports that literature. It does not tell you whether to combine them.
Every statement below is attributed to a named, dated, linked source.
This page lists published research relevant to Clarithromycin and Probiotics. It deliberately does not state whether the combination is safe, whether it interacts, in which direction, at what dose, or how far apart to take them.
Strongest relevance first: papers naming both substances in the title, then human trials and systematic reviews.
“Probiotic or sulforaphane with triple therapy for H. pylori infection neither increased the eradication rate nor reduced the occurrence of adverse events.”
Names both Clarithromycin and Probiotics in its title.
“Adding probiotics, particularly S. boulardii or multi-strain combinations, to BQT significantly improves eradication efficacy and decreases treatment-related adverse events. PBQT represents a pragmatic optimization of current first-line regimens and supports its incorporation into clinical practice to improve H. pylori treatment outcomes.”
Names Clarithromycin and Probiotics together in an interaction, co-administration, or pharmacokinetic context.
“Conclusion: Adding probiotics to the 10-day concomitant non-bismuth quadruple H. pylori eradication regimen increases the eradication rate and decreases side effects.”
Names Clarithromycin and Probiotics together in an interaction, co-administration, or pharmacokinetic context.
Search-based evidence indexes have real limits, and it is worth being explicit about them:
NutriStack is a free iPhone app for organising a supplement routine: what you take, when, and what the published record says about it. Its exploratory interaction checker covers Clarithromycin, Probiotics, and several hundred other substances.
The checker is a research and organisation tool, not a clinical decision aid, and its per-pair assessments are excluded from search until they pass claim-level review.
NutriStack is an informational and organizational tool, not a medical service, and not a substitute for professional advice. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before starting, stopping, or changing any supplement or medication.
