Clindamycin for infected tooth

Over a week now since end of root canal treatment and still in great pain - been to a no of different dentists - usually as an emergency - when mine is not available. Today, someone prescribed clindamycin, telling me to ditch the others I was on. Read that it really can get to the root (sorry about the pun) of the problem, but can cause horrible side effects.

Anyone any experience of this antibiotic? Have started taking as am desperate. Hope to see improvement - at the mo, things look bleak. Thanks.

sorry - another worry - am on co-codamol too. Short term relief but makes me feel dizzy, generally very strange. Hoping I'm not doing any silly but so desperate for anything that helps even for a few hours!
