Abstract
We report a case of Clostridium difficile infection in a patient with hidradenitis suppurativa who was taking clindamycin and rifampin. Clostridium difficile infection treatment prompted discontinuation of the medication. Clostridium difficile infection is known to develop after antibiotic treatment, such as clindamycin, but has rarely been associated with anti-tuberculosis agents, such as rifampin. Clinicians should be aware of the risk of Clostridium difficile infection in patients with hidradenitis suppurativa, even in those receiving rifampin.
