Why did my gyn prescribe Clindamycin Phosphate Vaginal Cream?
Clindamycin is used to treat certain bacterial vaginal infections. It works by killing the bacteria. The most common infections are due to one or a combination of the following: 1.Bacterial vaginosis — bacteria that normally live in the vagina overgrow, causing a heavy, white, fishy-smelling discharge and possibly a rash, painful intercourse, or odor after intercourse 2.Trichomoniasis — a sexually transmitted disease 3.Vaginal yeast infection Clindamycin will not work for vaginal fungus or yeast infections.
