What the title says, essentially. For some context, I'm 23 years old, afab, about 5'3" and I'm guessing around 136 lbs. I started taking Prednisone after an infection in my face from an abscess tooth reappeared. I was on Clindamycin originally, but I wasn't told to finish the entire bottle (or

**UPDATE - It's 100% Impetigo. His spots started drying up and flaking off on day 3. This morning - day 5 of antibiotics & prednisone - the oldest spots are starting to disappear and the newest ones are starting to shed and go through the same process as the oldest ones. Thank you to everyone wh

I'm a dentist and actually have a specific question, but I figured there are probably a lot of questions I don't even know to ask, so fire away! If this post gets some good responses I plan to post a link in r/Dentistry so more dentists will see it. My specific question has to do with the number of

2 months ago child’s mom reported child had rash after taking azithromycin, so we added that to allergies and contacted doctor to switch to clindamycin. We get another rx for azithro now but this time the mom says she thinks that the rash that time was due to taking tylenol, and wants to take the az

It smells like stinky feet and vomit mixed together, who formulated that and decided that was okay? Did you do a focus group, because no one will take that stuff. Also you can FlavorX that stuff, but it can only do so much.

I’ll try to keep it short. Patient comes in from ER with script for Norco and Clindamycin. Clindamycin comes out to be $29 and Norco $5. Patient says he cannot afford the antibiotic. I offered to call the hospital for a substitution for a cheaper alternative, and inform patient that it will take les

Does any ID pharmacist know why Clinda is dose lower PO than IV when oral bioavailability is 90%? ​ https://preview.redd.it/yr6os9u5tf391.png?width=655&format=png&auto=webp&s=15aeee84b0a05279225cc84fd11cec97198488f2

He's been to a few different doctors 7 times now. He's almost 2 years old and this just won't go away. It starts to improve and then flares back up again. I'm constantly told they don't know what's causing it. It's painful for him and I'd love to figure out how to fix this. He's currently on cli

Hey all, I'm an 18-year-old male with a dermatitis-looking rash on my chin. I've had it since mid-March 2020 and been told it looks like impetigo, perioral dermatitis, some type of fungal infection, etc. I've been to 3 dermatologists so far. 1st one from May-June, 2nd one from June-August, and now I

44M. I've had this issue for 20 years now, but never this bad. My left parotid randomly swells as I'm eating (sometimes repeatedly, sometimes a year might go by without noticing), and I usually manage it by pressing and massaging it to drain. When it gets bad enough that the gland becomes solid and

Hello, I just started at a new facility and throughout my previous work experience , every hospital I worked at used some sort of steri-seal to cover IV bags prior to sending them up to the floor and more often before they came out of the hood. My new work location does not cover the punctured end o

Hello, does anyone here understand the reasoning behind Clindamycin HCL being the oral formulation and Clindamycin Phosphate being the IV? I know that solubility plays a role, but does a decreased solubility in the GI tract affect absorption? Thanks!

Has anyone else been getting unusual rejects from Medicare (not Medicaid)? Today, I had 3 claims reject because the manufacturer had not “registered” the particular medication with Medicare. I’ve seen these with MediCAID, but never for MediCARE. I also received a “not covered due to patient age” on
