For Clathromycin and insulin it includes this in the report: Using clarithromycin together with insulin and some other diabetes medications has occasionally resulted in hypoglycemia. You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring of your blood sugar if you are receiving treatment for diabetes and are starting clarithromycin. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs.
