Some antibiotics the doctors say double up on the first 2 or 3 doses but Not clindamycin. Take some ibuprofen for the pain swish some peroxide in your mouth for 2 mins spit it out and rinse with water. The peroxide draws out the pus and crap in your abscess. Im going through the exact same thing right now

Lori,

It is important to always take medication in the way that the manufacturer instructs unless given specific directions from your primary care physician.

If the pain and swelling is intense I suggest calling your doctor to see if there is a pain medication that you are allowed to take with the Clindamycin.

I hope that you are well soon.
