 1  BV Infection HORRIBLE! Stay away from this drug!! My gyno prescribed this for a BV infection that I had. The drug works well but too well. Because the dosage was too high and too long to the point, it wiped out some good bacteria in my lower GI, this caused me to have a different infection called C. Diff. Be very cautious when taking this drug, this drug can definitely cause other infections even if it cures the one you currently have. C. Diff is a nasty infection. It causes constant diarrhea and is very hard to rid of. It is also CONTAGIOUS! So if you do take Clindamycin, ensure that you do your best to prevent contracting any other infections from it. Eat lots of yogurt with it! F 22 7 days

 1  BV Neverending white discharge- think it is a terrible yeast infection. Dr. visit tomorrow. Horrible to take if prone to yeast infections- I took the Clindesse brand, but did not find a separate post for that here F 36 1 days

 4  Cervicitis I'm not really sure since I'm also taking diflucan with it. It could possiblby be causing some nausea. Otherwise no other side effects to note. I have not yet fully completed my treatment. So far it appears to be working. Like I said above my Dr. prescribed diflucan to be taken along with it since this drug can cause yeast infections as well. I will be taking the full 7 days, then terazole and then another 7 days of the cleocin. F 33 7 days

 1  BV intense burning...constant milky white discharge....resulted in vulvadynia (a chronic pain condition) I would be very wary of this medication....it has caused terrible damage and I know from others who suffer from vulvadynia that I am not alone in this experience F 38 3 days

 2  BV took cleocin vaginal ovules for 3 days. side effects: intense itching after application; much leakage of medicine; loose stools. then, after all of that, i'm headed back to the doctor because my vaginal tract itches much worse than before; think it might have caused yeast (it targets all bacteria, good & bad, unlike metronidazole--but that's an even scarier medicine for women!) F 31 3 days
