How Should Clindamycin Palmitate Hydrochloride Be Taken?

WE have a prescription for Clindamycin Palmitate Hydrochloride for Oral Suspension - the instructions say to give 7 ml 3x a day.. it does not mention the information on the bottle that speaks of adding 75ml of water to the bottle.. is it possible the Dr did not need it to be mixed with water?

Hello,
Thank you for trusting HealthcareMagic for your health concern

If the bottle you purchased contain granules, then it will have to reconstituted with water according to product label instruction. Sometimes, the clindamycin might already have been reconstituted by the manufacturer or pharmacist. So please consult with your local pharmacist for appropriate instructions to use the product.

Regards
Dr.Lekshmi
