Has anyone had to take flourexatine and clarythromycin together? I'm not sure how safe it is.

    I'm not sure, I wouldn't think you could. Did the GP give you both?

    Doc says ok in short term, but internet says interaction causes heart rhythms.

    Clarythromycin is an antibiotic, if Im not mistaken so, I would imagine taken with the flourexatine (not too sure what that is but obviously an anti depressant) should be ok.

    But if GP said ok, then I'd go back and see him if you are worried.

    (I am a nurse but I dont know everything haha!!)
