A member asked:
What is the likelihood of having a bad reaction with the antibiotic clindamycin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very safe antibiotic: Clindamycin is a very safe antibiotic. Loose stools or diarrhea are fairly common after a few days. If diarrhea isn't severe and not accompanied by cramps or blood, usually nothing to worry about.
