Clindamycin Swab is used for:

  • you have antibiotic-associated colitis, ulcerative colitis, or Crohn disease

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Before using Clindamycin Swab:

Some medical conditions may interact with Clindamycin Swab. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

  • if you are pregnant, plan to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding
  • if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement
  • if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances
  • if you have gastrointestinal (bowel) disease or diarrhea

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Clindamycin Swab. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:

  • Nondepolarizing muscle relaxants (eg, vecuronium) or succinylcholine because the actions and side effects of these medicines may be increased
  • Erythromycin because the effectiveness of Clindamycin Swab may be decreased

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if this medicine may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.

How to use Clindamycin Swab:

Use Clindamycin Swab as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

  • Clindamycin Swab is for topical use on the skin only.
  • Wash and completely dry the affected area. Remove the pledget from foil just before use. Do not use if seal is broken. With pledget, gently apply a thin film of medicine. You may use more than 1 pledget if necessary to completely cover the affected area. Wash your hands immediately after using Clindamycin Swab. Throw the pledget away after using.
  • Clindamycin Swab works best if it is used at the same time each day.
  • To clear up your infection completely, continue using Clindamycin Swab for the full course of treatment even if you feel better in a few days.
  • If you miss a dose of Clindamycin Swab, use it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule.

Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Clindamycin Swab.

Important safety information:

  • Several weeks may pass before you see improvement in your acne. Continue using Clindamycin Swab for the full time recommended by your doctor.
  • It is important to use Clindamycin Swab for the full course of treatment. Failure to do so may decrease the effectiveness of this treatment and may increase the risk that the bacteria will no longer be sensitive to Clindamycin Swab and will not be able to be treated by this or certain other antibiotics in the future.
