Took 6 clindamycin for dental surgery horrible chest pain and indigestion. whats make it better? quit taking it. how get out of system quickly?

Fluids: When taking antibiotics, you should always drink more fluids. Especially, taking large doses. It is common to experience nausea and digestion. The chest pain could stem from stomach or acid reflex. The absorption of meds are in lower intestines so it takes some time. It can be rough on gut flora. Sometimes cultured yogurt or pre-biotics will help. You should call the surgeon an relay your concern
