Patient's question:
Doctor, my foreskin is infected. The doctor prescribed Clindamycin Palmitate Dispersible Tablets to be taken four times a day, two tablets each time. Could you please tell me how many hours apart I should take them? Thank you. I searched online and found that Clindamycin Palmitate Dispersible Tablets are antibiotics and should be taken at least six hours apart. If that's the case, wouldn't I not need to sleep? Could you please ask the doctors if it's okay to take them every four hours? Thank you?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to take oral antibiotics for the treatment of balanitis. Clindamycin is not an antibiotic but an antibacterial drug. You can adjust the oral medication schedule to three times a day: take two tablets in the morning, and three tablets at noon and before bedtime.The above advice is for the question "How often should Clindamycin Palmitate Dispersible Tablets be taken?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
