Cleocin Injection 150mg/ml (4 ml amp) is a sterile, preservative-free solution containing clindamycin phosphate, a lincosamide antibiotic. It is designed for intravenous or intramuscular administration to treat serious infections caused by susceptible anaerobic bacteria, streptococci, staphylococci, and pneumococci. The 4 ml ampule delivers a concentrated dose, making it suitable for clinical settings where precise dosing is required.



This injectable form of clindamycin is particularly effective for severe infections such as intra-abdominal infections, septicemia, lower respiratory tract infections, and gynecological infections. It works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, thereby stopping the growth of bacteria. The 150mg/ml concentration ensures potent therapeutic effects with controlled administration.




  • Active Ingredient: Clindamycin phosphate (equivalent to 150mg clindamycin per ml).

  • Presentation: 4 ml glass ampule, single-dose.

  • Indications: Serious anaerobic, streptococcal, staphylococcal, and pneumococcal infections.

  • Administration: Intravenous (IV) or intramuscular (IM) use only, as directed by a healthcare professional.

  • Dosage: Varies based on infection severity, patient weight, and renal function; typically 600–2700mg daily in divided doses.

  • Storage: Store at controlled room temperature (20–25°C); protect from light.



Cleocin Injection is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to clindamycin or lincomycin. Common side effects may include gastrointestinal disturbances, injection site reactions, or allergic responses. It should be used cautiously in patients with a history of gastrointestinal disease, particularly colitis, due to the risk of antibiotic-associated pseudomembranous colitis.



Healthcare providers should monitor patients for signs of superinfection or adverse reactions. The product is typically reserved for cases where oral clindamycin or other antibiotics are ineffective or impractical. Always follow aseptic techniques when handling and administering the injection to prevent contamination.
