Available

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking

I read your question and i understand your concern. Clindamycin is available in oral solutions form but in paediatric dosages. You may crush the pill and take it by dissolving it in water if swallowing a pill is a problem for you. Apart from it, you may request injections of clindamycin available for both IM and IV uses. Talk to your doctor and discuss these options and let them decide what is best for you.

I hope it helps. take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
