There are many antibiotics that have very weird rules. Most should be taken with at least 8 ounces of water as a minimum. Some should be taken on empty stomach (1 hour after or before eating). Some you should sit upright for at least 30 minutes after taking. Others have the ability to cause the sun or artificial sun light to make you sick while you are on it. Blah blah.
Looking at your drugs name I would presume it is part of the tetracycline family, not one of the nuke em style antibiotics. In strength ability it is pretty low key unless you have some very specific issues which are not related to cysts.
PS unless a drug says take on empty stomach. Eat a small piece of ginger 10-20 minutes before taking it if your prone to upset stomachs.

I went to the doctor today.. they didnt clean it, just dressed it and gave me dressing; gauze, some pads to use before the gauze and tape...
Gave me a prescription for Clindamycin. Told me to take hot baths a lot and to keep it open so that it will drain... Said that baths will probably help me more than the antibiotics...
Now I just have to disinfect and clean my tub before I bathe in it cause I havent cleaned my tub for awhile....
Do you think its overkill to go to a surgeon for a cyst? They said they can do it in the office but I have #'s of surgeons available in case I want to go that route... Do you think I need conscious sedation for this or no? The doctor says my cyst is in an area that doesn't have a lot of nerves so it shouldn't be too bad.... Do you think its bearable with just local shots?
Do you think local is enough or if I need conscious sedation?
They said it will take a "couple" of weeks before they can take it out, after infection dies down
