A member asked:
Can clindamycin be used as eye drops?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rarely: This would need to be made up special order by a compounding pharmacy at a proper dilution and with preservative artificial tears as the base and used for a rare infection that does not respond to the usual commercially available antibiotics. Never put Cleocin (clindamycin phosphate) directly in your eye.
