When can i have sex after clindamycin vaginal treatment?

Since you are taking an antibiotic, you should wait at least 5- 7 days. It is best you consult your OBGYN doctor for the best advice because they know your problem. In future always practice safe sex.

Vaginal clindamycin is used primarily to treat bacterial vaginosis. After BV treatment, it is best to avoid sex for several weeks, or to use condoms carefully and properly. Good luck.
