Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Reproduction studies in rats and mice using oral and parenteral dosages of clindamycin up to 600 mg/kg daily (2.1 and 1.1 times, respectively, the maximum recommended human parenteral dosage or 3.2 and 1.6 times, respectively, the maximum human oral dosage on a mg/m sq basis) or subcutaneous doses of clindamycin up to 250 mg/kg daily (0.9 - 1.3 and 0.5 - 0.7 times, respectively, the maximum recommended human dosage on a mg/m sq basis) have not revealed evidence of harm to the fetus. While cleft palates were observed in fetuses in one mouse strain, this was considered to be a strain-specific effect since it was not observed in other mouse strains or in other species studied.
