A member asked:
I have strong bv and am resistant to metronidazole would combining metro and clindamycin cure bv.if so how much mg of each pill should i take?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Resistant bv: I believe that you should see your gyn for this. The bacteria can be cultured and sensitivities checked with a large number of antibiotics. You should take the one or two that your infection is sensitive to and take the full course so the infection is totally eradicated.
