Clinzee Topical Gel

Clinzee Topical Gel is a topical acne medicine containing clindamycin, an antibiotic used on the skin to help treat acne vulgaris. Each tube contains the amount of clindamycin listed on the label, in gel form made by Santiago Lifesciences. Clinzee Topical Gel is applied directly to acne-prone skin to reduce acne-causing bacteria and calm inflammation.

How it works: Clindamycin works by stopping acne-causing bacteria from multiplying in the pores and on the skin. As a gel, Clinzee Topical Gel spreads easily over acne-prone areas and delivers the medicine where it is needed with minimal residue.

Clinzee Topical Gel is a doctor-directed topical acne treatment, and the gel base is often chosen when a light, non-greasy feel is preferred. Because there are no other strengths or forms of Clinzee sold here, this product is the specific labeled presentation your prescriber selected for your skin and acne pattern.

• Acne vulgaris
• Inflamed pimples
• Papules and pustules
• Acne on the face, chest, or back
• As part of a broader acne treatment plan

• Wash your hands before and after using Clinzee Topical Gel.
• Clean and gently dry the affected skin before applying.
• Apply a thin layer to the acne-affected area exactly as prescribed; do not use more than directed.
• Avoid getting the gel in your eyes, mouth, nose, or on broken skin.
• Let the gel dry before putting on moisturizer, makeup, or sunscreen.
• Use it consistently at the same time each day unless your prescriber tells you otherwise.

The dose is the amount of clindamycin listed on each tube of Clinzee Topical Gel, and it is applied as a thin film to the affected skin. How often to use it and whether any area limit applies depends on your doctor’s instructions and the severity of your acne; do not use more than prescribed. Topical clindamycin is not taken by mouth, and the exact daily schedule should be set by your clinician.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Clindamycin may include:

• Dry skin
• Redness
• Mild burning or stinging
• Itching
• Peeling or irritation
• Oily or greasy feeling is uncommon with a gel but may still happen in some people

• Use only on the skin; do not swallow Clinzee Topical Gel.
• Avoid use on eyes, lips, inside the nose, and open wounds.
• Tell your prescriber if you have a history of colitis or antibiotic-associated diarrhea.
• Stop and seek medical advice if you develop severe diarrhea during or after treatment.
• Do not use more often or on larger areas than prescribed, since irritation can increase with overuse.
• Be cautious with other acne products that can dry or irritate the skin, such as benzoyl peroxide, retinoids, or exfoliants.
• Sun sensitivity can happen, so use sun protection if your skin becomes more easily irritated.

• Other topical acne medicines that can irritate or dry the skin, including retinoids or benzoyl peroxide
• Erythromycin products used on the skin, which may not be the best combination with clindamycin for some patients
• Neuromuscular blocking medicines used in surgery, which can be relevant if clindamycin is absorbed systemically
• Other antibiotic products unless your prescriber specifically wants them combined
