I was prescribed Cleocin 300mg Capsules for a serious bacterial infection and I must say, it's been a bit of a rollercoaster. I've been taking it exactly as prescribed, but I've had some side effects that have me a little concerned. I'm finishing the entire course of treatment, even though I feel better, but I've had some serious stomach issues and a bad taste in my mouth. I've seen the list of possible severe side effects, and I'm hoping what I'm experiencing is just one of the non-urgent ones. I'm also wondering if anyone else had similar experiences or if there are any tips out there for dealing with these side effects. I've heard some people have severe skin reactions, but I haven't experienced that yet. Has anyone had any long-term effects from taking this medication?
