Clinical
Clindamycin injection is used to treat certain types of bacterial infections. Clindamycin is in a class of medications called lincomycin antibiotics. It works by slowing or stopping the growth of bacteria. Antibiotics such as clindamycin will not work for colds, flu, or other viral infections. Using antibiotics when they are not needed increases your risk of getting an infection later that resists antibiotic treatment.

🚨 Boxed Warning ▾
WARNING: CLOSTRIDIOIDES DIFFICILE-ASSOCIATED DIARRHEA (CDAD) and COLITIS Clostridioides difficile -associated diarrhea (CDAD) has been reported with use of nearly all antibacterial agents, including Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection and may range in severity from mild diarrhea to fatal colitis. Treatment with antibacterial agents alters the normal flora of the colon leading to overgrowth of C. difficile. Because Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection therapy has been associated with severe colitis which may end fatally, it should be reserved for serious infections where less toxic antimicrobial agents are inappropriate [ see Indications and Usage ( 1 ) ] .
It should not be used in patients with nonbacterial infections such as most upper respiratory tract infections. C. difficile produces toxins A and B which contribute to the development of CDAD. Hypertoxin producing strains of C. difficile cause increased morbidity and mortality, as these infections can be refractory to antimicrobial therapy and may require colectomy.
CDAD must be considered in all patients who present with diarrhea following antibacterial use. Careful medical history is necessary since CDAD has been reported to occur over two months after the administration of antibacterial agents. If CDAD is suspected or confirmed, ongoing antibacterial use not directed against C. difficile may need to be discontinued.
Appropriate fluid and electrolyte management, protein supplementation, antibacterial treatment of C. difficile , and surgical evaluation should be instituted as clinically indicated [ see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 ) ]. WARNING: CLOSTRIDIOIDES DIFFICILE-ASSOCIATED DIARRHEA (CDAD) and COLITIS See full prescribing information for complete boxed warning. Clostridioides difficile -associated diarrhea (CDAD) has been reported with use of nearly all antibacterial agents, including Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection and may range in severity from mild diarrhea to fatal colitis.
Treatment with antibacterial agents alters the normal flora of the colon leading to overgrowth of C. difficile ( 5.1 ). Because Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection therapy has been associated with severe colitis which may end fatally, it should be reserved for serious infections where less toxic antimicrobial agents are inappropriate (1). It should not be used in patients with nonbacterial infections such as most upper respiratory tract infections.
C. difficile produces toxins A and B which contribute to the development of CDAD. Hypertoxin producing isolates of C. difficile cause increased morbidity and mortality, as these infections can be refractory to antimicrobial therapy and may require colectomy ( 5.1 ).
🎯 Indications and Usage ▾
1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection contains clindamycin, a lincosamide antibacterial indicated for the treatment of the following in adult and pediatric patients for whom appropriate dosing with this formulation can be achieved: • Serious infections caused by susceptible anaerobic bacteria ( 1.1 ) • Infections Due to Susceptible Isolates of Streptococci, Pneumococci and Staphylococci. ( 1.2 ) • Lower Respiratory Tract Infections. ( 1.3 ) • Skin and Skin Structure Infections.
( 1.4 ) • Gynecological Infections. ( 1.5 ) • Intra-abdominal Infections. ( 1.6 ) • Septicemia.
( 1.7 ) • Bone and Joint Infections. ( 1.8 ) Limitation of use Since clindamycin does not diffuse adequately into the cerebrospinal fluid, Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection should not be used in the treatment of meningitis ( 1.9 ) Usage To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection and other antibacterial drugs, Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria.
( 1.10 )
1.1Infections Due to Susceptible Anaerobic Bacteria Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection is indicated for the treatment of serious infections caused by susceptible anaerobic bacteria in adults and pediatric patients for whom appropriate dosing with this formulation can be achieved [see Indications and Usage (1.3 - 1.7) ] .
1.2Infections Due to Susceptible Isolates of Streptococci, Pneumococci and Staphylococci Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection is indicated for the treatment of serious infections due to susceptible isolates of streptococci, pneumococci, and staphylococci in adults and pediatric patients for whom appropriate dosing with this formulation can be achieved. Its use should be reserved for penicillin-allergic patients or other patients for whom, in the judgment of the physician, a penicillin is inappropriate.
Because of the risk of antibacterial drug-associated pseudomembranous colitis, [see Boxed Warning ] , before selecting clindamycin the physician should consider the nature of the infection and the suitability of less toxic alternatives (e.g., erythromycin). Bacteriologic studies should be performed to determine the causative organisms and their susceptibility to clindamycin. Indicated surgical procedures should be performed in conjunction with antibacterial therapy.

( 5.8 )
5.1Clostridioides difficile -Associated Diarrhea Clostridioides difficile- associated diarrhea (CDAD) has been reported with use of nearly all antibacterial agents, including Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection, and may range in severity from mild diarrhea to fatal colitis. Treatment with antibacterial agents alters the normal flora of the colon leading to overgrowth of C. difficile . C. difficile produces toxins A and B which contribute to the development of CDAD.
Hypertoxin producing isolates of C. difficile cause increased morbidity and mortality, as these infections can be refractory to antimicrobial therapy and may require colectomy. CDAD must be considered in all patients who present with diarrhea following antibacterial use. Careful medical history is necessary since CDAD has been reported to occur over two months after the administration of antibacterial agents.
If CDAD is suspected or confirmed, ongoing antibacterial use not directed against C. difficile may need to be discontinued. Appropriate fluid and electrolyte management, protein supplementation, antibacterial treatment of C. difficile , and surgical evaluation should be instituted as clinically indicated [see Boxed Warning ].
5.2Anaphylactic and Severe Hypersensitivity Reactions Anaphylactic shock and anaphylactic reactions have been reported [see Adverse Reactions (6) ]. Severe hypersensitivity reactions, including acute myocardial ischemia with or without myocardial infarction, and severe skin reactions such as toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), some with fatal outcome, have been reported [see Adverse Reactions (6) ]. In case of such an anaphylactic or severe hypersensitivity reaction, discontinue treatment permanently and institute appropriate therapy.
A careful inquiry should be made concerning previous sensitivities to drugs and other allergens.
5.3Nephrotoxicity Clindamycin is potentially nephrotoxic and cases with acute kidney injury have been reported. Consider monitoring of renal function particularly in patients with pre-existing renal dysfunction or those taking concomitant nephrotoxic drugs. In case of acute kidney injury, discontinue Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection when no other etiology is identified [see Adverse Reactions (6) ].
5.4Diarrhea in Elderly Patients with Associated Severe Illness Elderly patients with associated severe illness may have a greater risk of developing adverse reactions from diarrhea. When clindamycin is indicated in these patients, they should be carefully monitored for change in bowel frequency [see Use in Specific Populations (8.5) ] .

👥 Use in Specific Populations ▾
8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS • Pediatric Use: Appropriate monitoring of organ system functions is desirable. ( 8.4 ) • Geriatric Use: Monitor for development of diarrhea. ( 8.5 )
8.1Pregnancy Risk Summary In limited published clinical trials with pregnant women, the systemic administration of clindamycin during the second and third trimesters, has not been associated with an increased frequency of major birth defects. The limited published data on use of clindamycin in pregnant women with exposure during the first trimester are insufficient to inform a drug-associated risk of pregnancy-related adverse outcomes [see Data ]. In animal reproduction studies, no evidence of any adverse developmental outcomes was observed when oral or subcutaneous doses of clindamycin were administered to pregnant rats and mice during organogenesis at doses half to twice the highest clinically relevant dose based on body surface area comparison [see Data ].
The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2-4% and 15-20%, respectively.
Data Human Data In limited published trials in pregnant women administered clindamycin during the first trimester of pregnancy, there was no difference in the rate of major birth defects reported among in utero exposed infants compared to unexposed infants. From these observational data, it is not possible to draw any conclusions on the rate of specific major birth defects associated with clindamycin. These data cannot definitely establish or exclude any clindamycin-associated risk during pregnancy.
Animal Data Reproduction studies performed during organogenesis (gestational days 6-15) in pregnant rats and mice that were administered oral doses of clindamycin up to 600 mg/kg/day (twice or equivalent to the highest recommended adult human dose based on a body surface area comparison, respectively) or subcutaneous doses of clindamycin up to 250 mg/kg/day (equivalent to or half the highest recommended adult human dose based on a body surface area comparison, respectively) revealed no evidence of teratogenicity.
8.2Lactation Risk Summary Clindamycin has been reported to appear in breast milk in the range of less than 0.5 to 3.8 mcg/mL at dosages of 150 mg orally to 600 mg intravenously. Clindamycin has the potential to cause adverse effects on the breastfed infant’s gastrointestinal flora. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for clindamycin and any potential adverse effects on the breast-fed child from clindamycin or from the underlying maternal condition.
Clinical Considerations If oral or intravenous clindamycin is required by a nursing mother, it is not a reason to discontinue breastfeeding, but an alternate drug may be preferred. Monitor the infant for possible adverse effects on the gastrointestinal flora, such as diarrhea, candidiasis (thrush, diaper rash) or blood in the stool indicating possible antibacterial drug-associated colitis.
8.4Pediatric Use Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection is indicated for the treatment of serious infections caused by susceptible anaerobic bacteria, infections due to susceptible isolates of streptococci, pneumococci and staphylococci, lower respiratory tract Infections, skin and skin structure infections, gynecological infections, intra-abdominal infections, septicemia and bone and joint infections in pediatric patients for whom appropriate dosing with this formulation can be achieved [see Indications and Usage (1.1-1.8) ] and Dosage and Administration (2.3) ].

Animal Data Reproduction studies performed during organogenesis (gestational days 6-15) in pregnant rats and mice that were administered oral doses of clindamycin up to 600 mg/kg/day (twice or equivalent to the highest recommended adult human dose based on a body surface area comparison, respectively) or subcutaneous doses of clindamycin up to 250 mg/kg/day (equivalent to or half the highest recommended adult human dose based on a body surface area comparison, respectively) revealed no evidence of teratogenicity.
🧒 Pediatric Use ▾
8.4Pediatric Use Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection is indicated for the treatment of serious infections caused by susceptible anaerobic bacteria, infections due to susceptible isolates of streptococci, pneumococci and staphylococci, lower respiratory tract Infections, skin and skin structure infections, gynecological infections, intra-abdominal infections, septicemia and bone and joint infections in pediatric patients for whom appropriate dosing with this formulation can be achieved [see Indications and Usage (1.1-1.8) ] and Dosage and Administration (2.3) ].
When Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection is administered to the pediatric population (less than 1 month to 16 years old) appropriate dosing and monitoring of organ system functions is desirable. Because of the limitations of the available strengths and administration requirements (i.e., administration of fractional doses is not recommended) of Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection, and to avoid unintentional overdose, this product is not recommended for use if a dose of Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection is required that does not equal 300 mg 600 mg or 900 mg is required and an alternative formulation of clindamycin should be considered [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ].
The potential for the toxic effect in the pediatric population from chemicals that may leach from the single dose premixed Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection preparation in plastic has not been evaluated.
🧓 Geriatric Use ▾
8.5Geriatric Use Clinical studies of clindamycin did not include sufficient numbers of patients age 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger patients. However, other reported clinical experience indicates that antibacterial drug-associated colitis and diarrhea (due to Clostridioides difficile ) seen in association with most antibacterial drugs occur more frequently in the elderly (>60 years) and may be more severe. These patients should be carefully monitored for the development of diarrhea.
Pharmacokinetic studies with clindamycin have shown no clinically important differences between young and elderly subjects with normal hepatic function and normal (age-adjusted) renal function after oral or intravenous administration [ see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ].
🆘 Overdosage ▾
10 OVERDOSAGE Significant mortality was observed in mice at an intravenous dose of 855 mg/kg (~3 times the human dose based on body surface area) and in rats at an oral or subcutaneous dose of approximately 2618 mg/kg (~18 times the human dose based on body surface area). In the mice, convulsions and depression were observed and in rats depression was observed prior to death. Hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis are not effective in removing clindamycin from the serum.

12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
12.1Mechanism of Action Clindamycin is an antibacterial drug [see Microbiology (12.4) ] .
12.3Pharmacokinetics Clindamycin phosphate is a water-soluble ester prodrug of clindamycin. Biologically inactive clindamycin phosphate is converted to active clindamycin. By the end of short-term intravenous infusion, peak serum concentrations of active clindamycin are reached.
After intramuscular injection of clindamycin phosphate, peak concentrations of active clindamycin are reached within 3 hours in adults and 1 hour in pediatric patients. Serum concentration-time curves may be constructed from intravenous peak serum concentrations by application of elimination half-lives described in the elimination section below. Serum concentrations of clindamycin can be maintained above the in vitro minimum inhibitory concentrations for most indicated organisms by administration of clindamycin phosphate every 8 to 12 hours in adults and every 6 to 8 hours in pediatric patients, or by continuous intravenous infusion.
An equilibrium state is reached by the third dose. Distribution No significant concentrations of clindamycin are attained in the cerebrospinal fluid even in the presence of inflamed meninges. Elimination Clindamycin is metabolized predominantly by CYP3A4, and to a lesser extent by CYP3A5, to the major metabolite clindamycin sulfoxide and minor metabolite N-desmethylclindamycin.
Biologically inactive clindamycin phosphate disappears from the serum with 6 minutes of the average elimination half-life; however, the average serum elimination half-life of active clindamycin is about 3 hours in adults and 2.5 hours in pediatric patients. Specific Populations Patients with Renal/Hepatic Impairment The elimination half-life of clindamycin is increased slightly in patients with markedly reduced renal or hepatic function. Hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis are not effective in removing clindamycin from the serum.
Dosage schedules do not need to be modified in patients with renal or hepatic disease. Geriatric Patients Pharmacokinetic studies in elderly volunteers (61-79 years) and younger adults (18-39 years) indicate that age alone does not alter clindamycin pharmacokinetics (clearance, elimination half-life, volume of distribution, and area under the serum concentration-time curve) after intravenous administration of clindamycin phosphate. After oral administration of clindamycin hydrochloride, the average elimination half-life is increased to approximately 4.0 hours (range 3.4-5.1 h) in the elderly, compared to 3.2 hours (range 2.1-4.2 h) in younger adults.
The extent of absorption, however, is not different between age groups and no dosage alteration is necessary for the elderly with normal hepatic function and normal (age-adjusted) renal function 1 . Pharmacokinetics in Pediatric Patients with PMA ≤ 32 weeks, or > 32 to ≤ 40 weeks Systemic clearance (CL) in premature infants increases with increases in bodyweight (kg) and post-menstrual age (PMA). The dosing regimens for pediatric patients ≤ 32 weeks PMA (5 mg/kg) and 32 to ≤ 40 weeks PMA (7 mg/kg), both administered intravenously every 8 hours, achieve exposures comparable to therapeutic exposures in adults (weighing 70 kg) administered clindamycin 600 mg every 8 hours ( Table 4 ).

💬 Information for Patients ▾
17 PATIENT COUNSELING INFORMATION C. difficile- Associated Diarrhea (CDAD) Advise patients that diarrhea is a common problem caused by antibacterial drugs including Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection, that usually ends when the antibacterial is discontinued. Sometimes after starting treatment with antibacterial drugs, including Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection, patients can develop watery and bloody stools (with or without stomach cramps and fever) even as late as two or more months after having taken the last dose of the antibacterial drugs.
If this occurs, contact physician as soon as possible [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ]. Antibacterial Resistance Patients should be counseled that antibacterial drugs including Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection should only be used to treat bacterial infections. They do not treat viral infections (e.g., the common cold).
When Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection is prescribed to treat a bacterial infection, patients should be told that although it is common to feel better early in the course of therapy, the medication should be taken exactly as directed. Skipping doses or not completing the full course of therapy may (1) decrease the effectiveness of the immediate treatment and (2) increase the likelihood that bacteria will develop resistance and will not be treatable by Clindamycin Phosphate in Sodium Chloride Injection or other antibacterial drugs in the future.
