I really don't think it will. But check on both leaflets inside the packs, they should a.ways lost what drugs can interact, and also tomorrow call your pharmacy and double check.

Hi Shadow,

I have been on Montelukast for 15+ years, I have allergies to penicillin, septrin, doxyciclin, I have had clarithromycin many times and never had any problems, I have this on hand in my emergency pack. You do have to stop taking statins whilst you are taking Clarithromycin.

There is a drug interaction checker at Drugs.com , the interaction checker is intended for use by USA consumers but I have found it helpful in the past, perhaps you will too. You just accept the terms, then add the drug names to check and then click the tab, "check for interactions"
