@lioness Unfortunately, Clindamycin ranks at the top of the list for antibiotics which can cause Cdiff. Cipro,which is used very often for UTI's also ranks high on the list. Macrobid would be a much better choice for a UTI. But then, it also depends on what type of bacteria is causing the infection.
