Clindamycin 150 Mg Cap (Top voted first)

Why would a dental surgeon recommend a round of this antibiotic during the follow up to wisdom teeth extraction? We got no explanation, but were just told to go on another round of anti-biotics.

REPORT

Smark, they most likely wanted it to be taken to ensure that an infection doesn't set in, it can be used to prevent infections, as well as treating ones that have already set in.

Judy, it is an antibiotic and can be used to treat various types of infections, but the primary concern is that you only have part of a bottle and for an infection to be fully eradicated, you need to take a full course of treatment. Otherwise you run the risk of developing antibiotic resistant bacteria.
