Have a quick question......had a root canal, got infected, Keflex did
not work, Levaquin did not work, so did clindamycin for 3 days only
because I have been on vancomycin for alomost a year now due to
stomach bacteria...do you think 3 days was enough??? Any help would
be greatly appreciated. Jodie

3 days not usually enough.

You need to be evaluated by an Endodontist.
