Donating YT 500 Club Member | It is an oral antibiotic given after dental procedures and for abscesses, etc. From what I read about the potential side affects, I would see if there isn't another antibiotic your vet could/would prescribe. IDK, could be that others here have some experience with this drug, and it's okay. I would ask your vet though about it's safety. Clindamycin Hydrachloride oral drops

My dee dee is taking clindamyacin for staph infection and gets 1.2 ml daily for 25 days - she gets it once a day and doing fine on it but it can cause stomach upset so make sure to give mid meal so i feed 1/2 food give antibiotic then feed her next half you may want to call mfg about what vet is telling you but clindamyacin is usually used in dentals but i did skin culture and it will work for staph as well and dd got hives from simplicef so we are using this one instead now. | |

| Perhaps he's thinking that the pockets are the beginning of what could be an abscess? Antibiotics would help with that. Just a thought

| Nope no dental vaccine did not even bring it up. Last year I asked him and he told me he advises against it the same with the Lyme shot unless your dog is in the woods all day there was one other shot also I don't have my paperwork handy that the old Vet was giving that he said was not. He told me that he only gives shots to his clients that he gives to his own dog. |
