Clindamycin capsules during pregnancy

2022-03-26 09:37:24
Is oral clindamycin 300mg tablets twice per day for 5 days safe during 24 weeks pregnancy? Doctor prescribed it since I had staphylococcus aureus in urine culture. Already took nitrofurantoin for the last 3 days. Worried if this much antibiotics will be harmful during pregnancy.
