A member asked:
Is a test necessary to use cleocin (clindamycin phosphate) for bacterial vaginitis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: It is not necessary but it is advisable since all antibiotics have side effects and you don't want to risk side effects if it may not help because your symptoms are caused by something else.
