- Shake the suspension well before each use to mix the medication evenly.
- Swallow the long-acting tablets whole; do not split, chew, or crush them.
- Take clarithromycin until you finish the prescription, even if you feel better.
- In case you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is near the following amount, skip it. Do not overdose.
- Most forms are taken twice daily, while modified-release tablets are taken once daily.
