Clindamycin phosphate and Septic shock - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Septic shock is reported as a side effect among people who take Clindamycin phosphate (clindamycin phosphate), especially for people who are female, 60+ old, have been taking the drug for < 1 month also take Ceftazidime, and have Staphylococcal infection.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes which people have Septic shock when taking Clindamycin phosphate. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 3,863 people who have side effects when taking Clindamycin phosphate from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
