Neuac
Neuac (generic name: clindamycin and benzoyl peroxide) is a topical medication used to treat acne vulgaris in individuals aged 12 years and older. It combines two active ingredients: clindamycin, which is an antibiotic that helps reduce the bacteria that contribute to acne, and benzoyl peroxide, which has antimicrobial properties and helps to unclog pores and reduce inflammation. Neuac works synergistically to effectively decrease acne lesions and prevent future breakouts.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to see results from Neuac?
Many patients begin to see improvement in their acne within 4 to 6 weeks, but optimal results may take up to 12 weeks of consistent use.
Can I use Neuac with other acne treatments?
While you can use Neuac with other acne treatments, be cautious as it may increase the risk of skin irritation. Consult your healthcare provider for guidance on using it with other medications.
Is it normal for my skin to get worse before it gets better?
Yes, some patients may experience an initial worsening of acne before improvement is seen. This is sometimes referred to as the "purging phase."
Can Neuac be used during pregnancy?
Neuac should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed, and the risks and benefits should be discussed with a healthcare provider.
What should I do if I miss a dose of Neuac?
If you miss a dose, apply it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and return to your regular schedule. Do not apply extra to make up for a missed dose.
Comprehensive Drug Guide
How Does Neuac Work?
- Clindamycin works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, effectively reducing the Propionibacterium acnes bacteria on the skin that contribute to acne development.
- Benzoyl peroxide helps to reduce the amount of oil (sebum) on the skin and has a keratolytic effect, which means it helps to exfoliate the skin and prevent the clogging of pores.
Together, these ingredients target multiple factors involved in the formation of acne, leading to clearer skin.
Common Dosages
- 1.2% clindamycin and 3.75% benzoyl peroxide.
Typical Dosing
- Apply a thin layer of Neuac gel to the affected areas of the skin once daily, preferably in the evening.
- Before applying, wash the affected area gently and pat it dry.
Typical Dosing
FDA Approved Indications
- Topical treatment of acne vulgaris in patients aged 12 years and older.
Who Shouldn't Take Neuac?
- Known hypersensitivity to clindamycin, benzoyl peroxide, or any other component of the formulation.
- History of antibiotic-associated colitis (Clostridium difficile infection).
Advice From The Pharmacist
- Apply Neuac to clean, dry skin once daily, and avoid applying it to broken or irritated skin.
- Use a moisturizer if your skin becomes excessively dry or irritated while using Neuac.
- Be cautious of clothing and hair, as benzoyl peroxide can cause bleaching or discoloration.
- Avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, and mucous membranes. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
- If you experience significant irritation, dryness, or worsening acne, consult your healthcare provider for further guidance.

Risks and Warnings of Neuac
- Skin Irritation: Neuac can cause irritation, particularly in individuals with sensitive skin. If irritation persists, reduce the frequency of application or discontinue use and consult a healthcare provider.
- Clostridium difficile: Although rare, the use of topical clindamycin has been associated with antibiotic-associated colitis. If diarrhea develops while using Neuac, inform your doctor.
- Sun Sensitivity: Benzoyl peroxide can increase skin sensitivity to sunlight. Use sunscreen and protective clothing when exposed to the sun.
Interactions with Neuac
Common Drug Interactions
- Other topical acne treatments: Be cautious when combining Neuac with other topical acne medications (like retinoids or additional antibiotics) to avoid excessive skin irritation.
- Systemic antibiotics: There are generally no significant drug interactions, but using multiple antibiotics should be monitored for effectiveness and adverse effects.
Alternatives to Neuac
