A member asked:
Should i stop using cleocin (clindamycin phosphate) if diarrhea?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Talk to your doc: You should talk to your doctor first. While the Cleocin (clindamycin phosphate) (clindamycin) may be the cause of your diarrhea, stopping the antibiotics may be dangerous. This isn't a decision you should make on your own.
