Periods In Between The Course Of Taking Clidamycin And Clotrmazole Vaginal Suppositories. When To Continue?
Hello Dr.
I start taking this capsule Clindamycin and clotrimazole vaginal suppositories for ten days, and after 2 days taking my period just came. And I know I don’t have to take the capsule while this time, but when shall I continuo it?? And I have body pain because of the period all time, so is it possible to take anti pain tablet as usual??

Hi,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic,
After going through your available details you are taking treatment for possible fungal and/or bacterial infection.
You should continue to use these suppository until the course is completed, even if this means inserting them during your monthly period.
If you do use them during your period you should use sanitary towels rather than tampons.
You can certainly take analgesic as usual for your pain.
Hope this helps, if you have any doubt please talk to your Gynecologist and clear your doubt.
Take care.
Good Luck.

Hi,
You can continue clindamicin if oral dose is prescribed.
If vaginal suppositories of both are prescribed, stop taking during period.
Continue again after your bleeding stopped.
Ok and take care.
