Explanation
•The use of clindamycin, cephalosporins, penicillins, and other antibiotics can result in the destruction of the normal flora of the intestines. This provides an opportunity for C. difficile to grow, causing pseudomembranous colitis.
•Clindamycin has a black box warning for its high occurrence of pseudomembranous colitis.
•Miconazole, an antifungal, does not destroy the normal flora of the intestines.
