We found no known interaction between Art Of Living and Clarithromycin in our sources. Absence of a documented interaction is not the same as proven safety, and does not guarantee one does not exist. Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first.

Art Of Living and Clarithromycin

We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.

No Known Interaction Found

We did not find a documented interaction between Clarithromycin and Art Of Living in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — there is often limited research on supplements and herbal products, especially around drug interactions.

Worth understanding: our licensed dataset holds no drug-interaction record for Art Of Living at all — not against Clarithromycin, and not against any other medication we track. This verdict therefore rests on the absence of any recorded data, not on research that looked at this combination and found nothing. We cannot rule an interaction out.

If you decide to take both, the practical routine is simple: add one new thing at a time and note the date you started it. If the combination is going to disagree with you, it usually shows in the first days to a couple of weeks — and a start date turns “I’ve been feeling off” into something a pharmacist can actually work with. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.

Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

Art Of Living safety at a glance

Art Of Living overall Not established This is the name of a wellness organization and its programs, not a single supplement, so there is no standard ingredient to assess.
Pregnancy Use caution Breathing and yoga practices vary in intensity, so pregnant people should check with a doctor and a qualified instructor first.
Breastfeeding Not established As a set of mind-body practices rather than an ingested product, there is no clear safety data; ask your healthcare provider.

Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

What Clarithromycin’s Own FDA Label Lists

These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Clarithromycin’s own FDA label, for the medication by itself.

  • Bleeding in the gut Worth acting on
  • An irregular heartbeat Worth acting on
  • Low mood Worth acting on
  • A severe allergic reaction Worth acting on
  • Liver problems Worth acting on
  • A higher chance of infection Worth acting on
  • An allergic reaction Worth acting on
  • A change in taste

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Clarithromycin. Read the label on DailyMed › Art Of Living’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Art Of Living side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Art Of Living has no side effects.

About Art Of Living

What is Art Of Living?

  • Stress and anxiety relief
  • Relaxation and calm
  • Improved sleep
  • Emotional well-being
  • General mental wellness

"Art of Living" is not a plant, herb, or dietary supplement. It is the name of a global nonprofit organization founded by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar that teaches meditation, breathing techniques (such as Sudarshan Kriya), and yoga-based programs for stress and well-being. If you saw this name on a product label, check the actual ingredients, because there is no single herb called "Art of Living."

Breathing programs, meditation courses, group classes

An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Art Of Living is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Art Of Living record says about it on its own.

Art Of Living: dosing

There is no pill or standardized dose because Art of Living is a program, not a supplement.

About Clarithromycin

What Is Clarithromycin Used For?

Brand names: Biaxin, Biaxin XL

Clarithromycin treats mild to moderate infections caused by susceptible bacteria. It does not work against viruses.

Not every product is approved for every use. Clarithromycin extended-release tablets are approved only for three infections in adults: flare-ups of chronic bronchitis caused by bacteria, acute sinus infection (maxillary sinusitis), and community-acquired pneumonia. Clarithromycin tablets and oral suspension cover a wider list, including throat and tonsil infections, skin infections, and ear infections in children. H. pylori treatment is listed for the tablets only.
