Brief Answer: Clindamycin is safe during pregnancy Detailed Answer: Hi, The query is not yet clear. Do you mean you are pregnant? Do you want to take Clindamycin and ethical nutrients to support urinary tract? Clindamycin is safe during pregnancy. I am not sure about ethical nutrients.

Brief Answer: Cranberry juice is better than ethical nutrients Detailed Answer: I just checked there is no robust evidence that says any benefits of ethical nutrients against bladder infection. If you wish to prevent/avoid bladder infection during pregnancy I suggest to take cranberry juice which is better than ethical nutrients. Nitrofurantoin and sulphonamides are the best antibiotics if you have evidence of urinary/ bladder infection during pregnancy. YOu need to consultant doctor if you need antibiotics.
