You will have an allergic reaction that can lead to anaphylaxis: tingling or itching in the mouth, a raised, itchy red rash (urticaria), in some cases, the skin can turn red and itchy, but without a raised rash, swelling of the face, mouth (angioedema) or other areas of the body, difficulty swallowing, wheezing or shortness of breath.
can i take clindamycin if im allergic to ceclor
Yes it is safe. Source: Me - I am allergic to Vancomycin and have been on Clindamycin.
Yes. Clindamycin is not a penicillin-like antibiotic, so it may be used if allergic to penicillin. However, this does not mean you cannot be allergic to this drug also.
no

pre-medicate, they must be given 600mg of Clindamycin.
I am allergic to sulpha and told this to the ER doctor and they prescribed this for me. I am not a medical expert and have now knowledge of medicine, but with that information I don't think they would prescribe this medicine with full knowledge the person taking it was allergic to sulpha. Took it for the 10 days with no problems.
I am allergic to bactrim and have been prescribed clindamycin for severe razor burn. I told my dr. about my allergy. Clindamycin topical works very well for me, never had a reaction. Although I should say officially I don't know.
It is safe to use in a penicillin allergy because the two drugs are not in the same family. They are both antibiotics but have little else in common. They do not share similar chemical structures or mechanisms of action. Clindamycin is a macrolide antibiotic whereas penicillin is a beta lactam antibiotic.
Allergic symptoms include itchy rash, swelling, runny nose, watery eyes, and possibly difficulty breathing.
