Hello,
I can understand your concern and advise you not to take both these antibiotics together.
Ciprofloxacin has higher antibacterial coverage than
Clindamycin so stop taking Clindamycin and complete the course of Ciprofloxacin.
In addition, the description of the symptoms suggests that you are probably having trouble with the lower third molar or wisdom tooth. It might be impacted or infected causing the symptom. In that case, only antibiotics will not help to relieve the problem.
You should make an appointment with the
dentist and go for clinical examination of the oral cavity along with x-ray of the lower third molar area on the side of jaw where the pain is. If it is indeed the cause, you should get the tooth extracted.
In addition, if you are having pain and not able to chew probably, you should take
analgesic such as Ketorolac 10 mg (
Ketorol DT) thrice a day.
I hope this information helps you. Thank you for choosing HealthcareMagic. I wish you feel better soon.
Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
