will clarithromycin treat conjunctivitis? My daughter was put on it yesterday for an ear infection and sore throat and today it looks like she may also have pink eye. I am wondering if the medicine will treat that as well or if I should take her back to the doctor tomorrow.
Clarithromycin does not treat pinky eyes. Her symptoms could be related to local conjunctivitis, allergic or inflammatory. I recommend consulting with an ophthalmologist as she may need eye drops.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
