Yes I was prescribed Cleocin for facial cellulitis and it did help the swelling go down. but now its like the infection is back and the swelling is trying to come back. I would like to know will it hurt if I take two of them at one time even though iam supposed to take it three times a day
Hi. Welcome back. As per our complaint Clean contains active ingredient Clindamycin and is an antibiotic which is appropriate to be taken for Cellulitis. But antibiotics or any other medication for that matter works well when a constant concentration of the Chat Doctor. .Therefore, taking a larger dose and skipping other doses is not a correct way. Therefore, you should take the dose advised by your Physician and take it every after 8 hours if it has to be taken thrice a day so that it will work appropriately and help in reducing infection. If the swelling seems to worsen consult your Physician as he might give you a steroid shot for faster relief followed by oral antibiotic medications. Hope this helps. Regards.
