 4  Bv Some burning first night, headache, pain, diaherria a little I took mine for a little bit of a longer course of 9 days. Reason for this is because I have had persistent bv for the last year. I've tried oral clindamycin, Flagyl, metrogel, clindamycin cream, etc. Mine still comes back. I took this little over a week my symptoms for now have seemed to improve but I'll see F 26 9 days

 5  BV Only a slight "burn"¯ for a minute or two andt's no big deal at all. This medicine treats the issue at the source instead of an antibiotic throughout your whole body in a pill form. It clears up BV with the 3 bedtime inserts and is the fastest working one on the market! Worth the little bit of irritation 100%! F 40 3 days

 4  BV I've taken this medicine before and didn't get the burn. Other times I got the burn like today. I would say from My experience the burn isn't usually consistent and it's not thaaat bad. For me it's worth it cause metrogel Doesn't work for me and is much messier. Cleocin melts right away once inserted. The discharge is no where near as messy as metro gel. And super easy to easy and effective. The burning is odd but not enough to turn me away F 30 0 months

 1  BV Absolutely hated this medicine. Took an ovule the first night and had extreme burning and thought my vagina was on fire for about 45 minutes. Next day terrible stomach cramps, diahrea and constant trips to pee. Felt like I had a UTI. Dr said to stop using immediately. Why did she give me this medication? After reading the views I'm so annoyed. When will the symptoms go away? Second night and still feel like poop. I did not take any more of this medication after the first nite. Why did the FDA even approve this medication? Please be wary of the medication. It seems like the incidence of side affects is not rare. I will be calling my dr again tomorrow to discuss and ask for a test for a UTI. I feel terrible. 53 3 days

 3  Bv Fatigue, vaginal itching, diarrhea, stomach cramps, back pain headache and leakage. I had worse symptoms with metrogel so we went this route instead. I have Ulcerative Colitis and all antibiotics affect my stomach similarly. The vaginal itching is what is bothering me the most at this time. Not sure whether or not I would use Clindamyacin cream again. Just being honest here. F 38 3 days

 5  BV no side effects This medication worked perfectly to clear up my BV. The only complaint I would have is about the leakage the day after. I did insert the meds right before bed but the next day I still had to wear a pad to prevent the leakage from getting on to my clothes. I wouldn't really say that it is a complaint about that because I understand it and the medication did it's job! It's also very easy to take. F 30 7 days
