Abstract
Clindamycin was given orally over prolonged periods to 12 patients with chronic osteomyelitis. It was well tolerated with only minor side effects and no major toxicity. Clinical and bacteriological cure occurred in five patients and improvement was noted in another five. It appears less effective than either lincomycin or cloxacillin but, because of the complex nature of both the disease and its treatment, strict comparisons are very difficult.Entities:
