Avatar f tn I am 27 year old male, in September 2017 I suffered from an acute throat infection so my ENT doctor gave me clindamycin and since then I am having acute diarrhea with pain in my lower abdomen. The pain starts and I feel the urgent need of going for bowel movement and as soon as I am done the pain goes away. There is no blood in the stool but it watery all the time and yellow in color. This happens about 4-5 times daily.
Avatar f tn About a week ago after I finished the clindamycin I had absolute crazy diarrhea, abdominal pain(mostly radiating from my right side) and loss of appetite. I was tested for cdiff. By my dr and the test came back -. My GI seems to think I my gallbladder was the culprit sent me for an ultrasound and that came back - for gallbladder problems. It did point out that I have a slightly fatty liver though. Can an ultrasound miss gallbladder issues?
Avatar f tn t seem to have problems with doxycycline, amoxicillin or clindamycin. Clindamycin destroys my stomach though. I avoid cipro and zithromax.
Avatar m tn Well, it may be that you still have some Clindamycin left in your system and it has caused disruption of your bowel "normal flora" or normal bacteria in the gut. So the probiotics (which you can get over the counter at Costco, or a pharmacy like Riteaid or CVS) are in higher concentration than yogurt are better. Trunature is another brand that is okay. You can eat two yogurts a day if they have live bacteria but it won't have as much bacteria in it.
Avatar f tn in urgent care and prescribed clindamycin e150 mg pills....3 pills 3x per day (12 pills) she is 15 and 119 lbs. Was not diagnosed with ANYTHING. Now we have had a utility, yeast infection, her iron level is at 30, she has passed out over 5 times, cannot sleep has lost weight, major stomach pain etc. urgent care has said it was right meds and right dose. NO WAY!
Avatar m tn I have spoken to my family in the UK and searched the internet and can nothing about taking milk based products and antibiotics together. Is this a German idea? Please can you offer some information.
72351 tn?1281992542 it does sound like an infection, but in my opinion, it is too risky to give the baby the clindamycin w/ out taking him/her to the vet. Way too risky and clindamycin might not be the correct antibiotic for the kitten's problem. Please come back w/ an update. Wishing the best for the kitten.
72351 tn?1281992542 I wrote in to you and you suggested to try Clindamycin or another drug. I took two of them into the vet to get the Clindamycin. He looked at one and said "oh he just has bad teeth". I thought this is strange as his teeth were fine until he contracted this ailment. He looks at the female and right away and said cancer! He did no biopsy or testing nor did he offer to do such. I find this extremely odd that I would have 4 cats who come down with this baffling ailment at apx.
Avatar f tn Alternatively, you can take clindamycin for the bv and drink a boat load of cranberry juice for the UTI and water of course. It will take longer to clear up the UTI but it should work. It did for me in a pinch. It just took a couple of extra days. Of course if you are diabetic you can't.
Avatar m tn If you google Lyme disease and weight loss, you will see others having the same problem.
Avatar n tn Clindamycin side effects diarrhea that is watery or bloody; fever, chills, body aches, flu symptoms, sores in your mouth and throat A side effect is usually regarded as an undesirable secondary effect which occurs in addition to the desired therapeutic effect of a drug or medication. Side effects may vary for each individual depending on the person's disease state, age, weight, gender, ethnicity and general health. dear, drug side effect shows at theraputic dose not in doctors mistake.
Avatar m tn He took a swab, however, of the outside of the rash and sent it off to be grown. He prescribed Clindamycin 300mg qid and told me to keep it elevated. The preliminary results indicate that I definitely have staph, but it might not be MRSA. He now doesn't seem quite sure what it is and wants to biopsy it, since it still hasn't developed pustules. Some other symptoms, which I have been experiencing lately are unexplained weight loss to the tune of 35 pounds in the last month.
Avatar n tn Height is 5 ft and used to weigh around 95lbs, over the past 5 years have experienced weight gain and am now 110lbs. Along with weight gain there has been shortness of breath, decreased energy level, pain in joints and feet. Developed vertigo and Neuro believed it was BPV and have been taking Meclazine as and when needed. Was diagnosed with ovarian cysts last year. Six months ago had a metallic taste in mouth which was unbearable and took Clindamycin for it.
Avatar f tn Symptom wise, I have always had constipation, nausea, stomach pain, early satiety, and significant loss of appetite with rapid weight loss and occasional vomiting recently. Whenever my symptoms flare up, the acne gets worse. It's due to the toxin accrued in your GI system. Usually after a severe episode of diarrhea and vomiting, when I went on a period of water fasting to allow my body recover, my acnes got noticeably better.
Avatar n tn However, she became extremely lethargic, loss of appetite, weight loss, and hair loss/skin lesions. She was then started on a two week dose of doxy followed by two weeks of zenaquin. she has lost over 6lbs and was only 35lbs to begin with. She was just put on another two weeks of zenaquin. Her blood tests revealed high WBC, low RBC, and low T4. It is now about two months from the start of her symptoms and she is still very sick with little improvement from the meds.
Avatar n tn has given me 10 days of clindamycin to be taken 3 times a day at a dose of 450 mgs. this is fine, i can take clindamycin with no ill effects. HOWEVER, i have read that this drug is not commonly used to treat std's as there are so many better options. Is clindamycin going to work??? Thanks.

Avatar n tn heat bag extraorally, and warm salt water intraorally) may help reducing the severity and duration of the condition and i recommend that u stop the clindamycin as the course is usually only one week also,long duration of clindamycin usually causes git problems

Avatar n tn In the time between my exposure and now I have experienced diarrhea, lack of appetite, weight loss, tinea versicolor, angular cheilitis, cystic acne, and what worries me most is now I have clustering folliculitis in my groin (I have never shaved down there) and non-clustering/sporadic folliculitis in my forearms and back of my hands (never had before). The folliculitis began after my 87 day test, the clindamycin given to me by my dermatologist is not improving the groin area.
Avatar n tn It is now 5 days taking benadryl and the hives and itching have not stopped. What is in the clindamycin that I may be allergic to?
