Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was prescribed clindamycin phosphate for BV but I haven t started treatment yet and I just so happen to come down with strept throat and started my prescription of amoxicillin. Is it ok for me to take both antibiotics or wait until I m done the amoxicillin?
Hi, Thanks for posting in HCM. I understand your concern. You can take both antibiotics for treating the infection of vagina and throat. Kindly take Vitamin B complex capsules, once capsule a day for 10 days. Maintain good genital hygiene. Also, doing salt water gargling with warm water twice a day would be helpful for throat infection. Hope the information provided would be helpful. All the best. Regards, Dr.Ashakiran.S., MBBS., MD.
