Clarithromycin
Good morning. My mother is having ear infection for almost a week now. Not able to hear properly. She's a kidney and diabetic patient. CKD stage 3a. After taking the antibiotic she feels uneasy. Symptoms are bitter taste, nausea and mild dizziness. Doctor has prescribed the medicine for 5 days. 2times a day. Till date she's taken for 3 days. Please don't mind can she stop the antibiotic or can she take only once a day. Before taking this medication she was taking azithromycin 250mg. Thank you.

Please consult the doctor who has prescribed the medicine. Ideally you are not supposed to stop an antibiotic in between the course. You could request the doctor to change the antibiotic if she isnt able to tolerate the medicine.
