Wild Daisy 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 Wild Daisy 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 Wild Daisy 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.

What Clarithromycin’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Wild Daisy. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Clarithromycin’s own FDA label, for the medication by itself. Knowing the drug’s own list makes it easier to work out the likely cause if something new turns up while you take both. 7 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • 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
  • Bloating or gas
  • Trouble sleeping

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

Overlapping uses

What Clarithromycin Is Prescribed For, and What Wild Daisy Has Been Studied For

These two come up together because they touch the same health topic — not because they do the same job. Clarithromycin is a prescription medicine with approved uses on its FDA label. Wild Daisy is a supplement: what follows is what researchers have looked at it for, and how strong that evidence is.

Clarithromycin is prescribed for: Clarithromycin tablets and oral suspension treat a range of mild to moderate bacterial infections in adults and children, including community-acquired pneumonia, acute sinus infections, acute bacterial flare-ups of chronic bronchitis, strep throat and tonsillitis, uncomplicated skin infections, and middle ear infections in children. Tablets are also used in adults to eliminate H. pylori bacteria (in combination with other medicines) to reduce the risk of duodenal ulcer recurrence. Clarithromycin tablets — but not the extended-release tablet — are also used to treat and prevent disseminated Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) infections in people with advanced HIV.

Read the rest of what Clarithromycin is prescribed for

Clarithromycin extended-release tablets are approved only for acute bacterial exacerbation of chronic bronchitis, acute maxillary sinusitis, and community-acquired pneumonia in adults — not for the other conditions listed above.

Wild Daisy has been studied for:

  • Bronchitis studied, not established Wild Daisy has been studied for this. Natural Medicines rates the evidence: Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate Read what the research shows

    Wild Daisy for bronchitis

    Although there has been interest in using oral wild daisy for bronchitis, there is insufficient reliable information about the clinical effects of wild daisy for this purpose.

Effectiveness ratings and the research summaries above are the verbatim record from the Natural Medicines database, which grades evidence from “Effective” down to “Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate”. A rating below the top of that scale means researchers have looked at it — not that it works, and never that it can stand in for a prescribed medicine. Do not stop or replace Clarithromycin on your own; if you are taking Wild Daisy for the same health topic, tell your prescriber, especially if the medicine is being adjusted to a target.

Where does our data come from?
  • Source: the Natural Medicines (TRC Healthcare) clinical database — the evidence-graded professional reference for herb & supplement interactions. Wild Daisy is not yet covered by that licensed database, so its write-up cites publicly available medical sources directly (see the references below).
  • Citation library: 103,510 references behind our interaction content, 65,311 of them resolved to verified PubMed/DOI sources. See every Wild Daisy reference on this page ↓
  • Freshness: we automatically re-check this combination every week — this pair was last verified September 20, 2026. The Wild Daisy and Clarithromycin records this page draws on were last updated June 22, 2026.
  • What “no known interaction” means: no documented interaction in the sources above — not a guarantee of safety. Supplements are studied far less than prescription drugs, so we say exactly what the evidence supports, and nothing more.

About Wild Daisy

What is Wild Daisy?

Wild Daisy
  • Bruises and minor wounds
  • Inflammation and swelling
  • Coughs and respiratory complaints
  • Digestive upset
  • Fluid retention ('water pill')
  • Skin conditions

Wild daisy (Bellis perennis) is a traditional European herb used mainly for bruises, minor wounds, and inflammation, but high-quality human evidence for any use is lacking. It is generally considered low-risk when used briefly on the skin, but people allergic to ragweed and related plants should be cautious, and it is best avoided in pregnancy and breastfeeding due to limited safety data.

Bellis perennis · Asteraceae · Flowers and leaves (sometimes the whole flowering plant) · Tea, tincture, topical ointment or cream, homeopathic preparations, dried herb

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

Wild Daisy: dosing

There is no established, standardized dose for wild daisy. Because it has not been well studied in people, safe and effective amounts are not known.If you choose to use a product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them.

Taking Wild Daisy and Clarithromycin Together: Common Questions

They overlap in purpose, which usually means the real question is whether you need both rather than whether they are safe together.
