Adapalene + Clindamycin

Uses

Adapalene and Clindamycin are used in the treatment of acne.

How it Works

How Adapalene and Clindamycin Work Adapalene and Clindamycin is a combination of two medications: Adapalene and Clindamycin, which treat acne. Adapalene is a form of vitamin A that prevents the accumulation of sebum (the skin's natural oil), unblocks pores, and allows for the natural exfoliation of the outer layers of skin. Clindamycin is an antibiotic that penetrates the skin and kills acne-causing bacteria.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Adapalene and Clindamycin include dry skin, erythema (skin redness), skin irritation, and a burning sensation.

Expert Advice

  • Apply a thin layer onto clean, dry, unbroken skin affected by acne.
  • Avoid contact with eyes and mouth; if contact occurs, rinse immediately with water.
  • Do not apply to broken, sunburnt, or sensitive areas of skin.
  • Inform your doctor if you experience unusual dryness, redness, or peeling of the skin.
  • This medication increases skin sensitivity to sunlight; apply sunscreen or wear protective clothing when outdoors.
  • Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
