10 days on penicillinv500, infection still the same, now dr sent clindamycin, took penecill 10hr before, can i wait until tom to start the new treat?

Not necessary: I would recommend you start as soon as possible. Since the infection was not controlled by penicillin it may be getting worse and you shouldn't wait. Good Luck
