Clindacin-P

Clindacin-P is a topical antibiotic containing clindamycin phosphate used to treat acne vulgaris. Clindamycin is part of the lincosamide class of antibiotics and works by inhibiting the growth of acne-causing bacteria, primarily Propionibacterium acnes. By reducing bacterial growth, Clindacin-P helps to prevent the formation of acne lesions and inflammation. It is available in various forms, including a topical gel, solution, and foam, and is commonly prescribed for mild to moderate acne.

Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Clindacin-P Work?

Clindacin-P works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis through binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit of susceptible bacteria, including Propionibacterium acnes. By preventing bacterial growth, Clindacin-P reduces the amount of acne-causing bacteria on the skin, leading to fewer acne breakouts and reduced inflammation.

  • Topical Solution: 1% clindamycin phosphate
  • Topical Foam: 1% clindamycin phosphate
