Clarithromycin overdose

Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1]

Overdosage of Clarithromycin can cause gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal pain, vomiting, nausea, and diarrhea.
Adverse reactions accompanying overdosage should be treated by the prompt elimination of unabsorbed drug and supportive measures. As with other macrolides, Clarithromycin serum concentrations are not expected to be appreciably affected by hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis.
