A member asked:
What type of throat irritation can clindamycin cause if not taken wirh enough water?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Well when i prescribe Clindamycine i advise my patients to take with whole glass of water always to prevent throat irritation.If not taken with enough water the capsule may get stuck in the throat and cause irritation which is not very serious and can be overcome with increased fluids for a day and sometime gargles with warm water with salt may help too.
