pharmacology - Does DHA increase the effects of clarithromycin?

I've read on this publication that every drug that induces CYP3A can reduce the effectiveness of clarithromycin. Clarithromycin inhibits CYP3A.



But it does not say anything about the opposite situation: does a low concentration of CYP3A increase the effect of clarithromycin?



This research shows how DHA can inhibit CYP3A.



Now the final question is: does a high concentration of DHA increase the effect of clarithromycin?
