Clindamycin for dental infections is typically prescribed as 150 mg capsules or tablets. The exact dosage and duration depend entirely on the severity of your infection and your doctor’s assessment.
Common regimens include:
| 150 mg | Every 6 hours | 7-10 days |
| 300 mg | Twice daily | 7-10 days |
Always follow your dentist or physician’s instructions precisely. Never alter the prescribed dosage or duration without consulting them. Take the medication with a full glass of water. Avoid consuming alcohol while on clindamycin.
If you experience any adverse effects such as diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, or allergic reactions, contact your healthcare provider immediately. This information is for guidance only and does not replace professional medical advice.
