Cleocin Gel (active ingredient: clindamycin phosphate) is a prescription medication indicated for:

  • Acne Vulgaris: Cleocin Gel is used in the treatment of acne vulgaris to reduce the number of acne lesions and inflammation.

Cleocin Gel belongs to a class of drugs known as lincosamide antibiotics, which work by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, thereby reducing the bacteria that cause acne and inflammation.

Use Cleocin Gel only on the skin. Apply a thin layer of the gel to the affected area(s) once or twice daily, as directed by your healthcare provider. Follow all directions on the product package or use as directed by your doctor. To use Clindamycin Phosphate Gel, follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider:

  1. Wash your hands thoroughly before applying the gel to avoid introducing extra bacteria.
  2. Wash the affected area with a mild cleanser (non-soap) and water, or as directed by your healthcare provider. Pat the area dry.
  3. Apply a thin layer of gel to the entire affected area. Avoid getting the gel into your eyes, nose, and mouth.
  4. Wash your hands after applying the medication.
  5. Use the medication as directed by your healthcare provider.
  6. Store the medication at room temperature between 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F) and keep away from heat and light.

Use Clindamycin Phosphate Gel exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider and avoid using more or less of it than recommended. Additionally, do not use it for longer than prescribed, as doing so may increase the risk of developing antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
