Ziana

Ziana is a combination topical medication containing clindamycin phosphate (an antibiotic) and tretinoin (a retinoid) used to treat acne vulgaris in patients 12 years and older. Clindamycin helps reduce acne-causing bacteria (Propionibacterium acnes), while tretinoin promotes skin cell turnover, preventing clogged pores and reducing inflammation. Ziana is particularly effective for treating inflammatory and non-inflammatory acne lesions, and it is commonly used for mild to moderate acne.

Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Ziana Work?

  • Clindamycin: An antibiotic that works by reducing the growth of acne-causing bacteria and decreasing inflammation associated with acne.
  • Tretinoin: A derivative of vitamin A that increases skin cell turnover, helping to keep pores clear and reduce the formation of acne lesions.

What is Ziana Used For?


Common Dosages

  • 1.2% clindamycin phosphate
  • 0.025% tretinoin

Typical Dosing

  • Apply a pea-sized amount of Ziana gel to the affected area once daily, preferably in the evening, after cleansing the skin. Use it as directed by your healthcare provider.

Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Treatment of acne vulgaris in patients aged 12 years and older.

Who Shouldn't Take Ziana?

  • A history of hypersensitivity to clindamycin, tretinoin, or any of the components of the formulation.
  • Ulcerative colitis or a history of antibiotic-associated colitis.
  • Pregnancy: Tretinoin, one of the components of Ziana, is classified as Category C and should be avoided during pregnancy unless deemed absolutely necessary.

Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Wash and dry your face thoroughly before applying Ziana. Use a gentle cleanser to avoid irritation.
  • Avoid applying Ziana to broken skin, and be careful around the eyes, mouth, and mucous membranes.
  • Ziana may increase your skin’s sensitivity to sunlight, so use a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily and avoid prolonged sun exposure, tanning beds, and UV lamps.
  • Do not use harsh or irritating skin products (e.g., alcohol-based astringents or exfoliants) while using Ziana, as they may increase the risk of skin irritation.
  • Be patient with results—improvement in acne may take several weeks to become noticeable, with full results seen in 8-12 weeks.

Side Effects of Ziana

Common Side Effects

  • Dryness or peeling of the skin
  • Redness or irritation at the application site
  • Itching or burning sensation
  • Increased skin sensitivity to sunlight

Uncommon/Severe Side Effects

  • Severe allergic reactions (swelling, difficulty breathing, rash)
  • Antibiotic-associated colitis (severe diarrhea, abdominal pain)

Risks and Warnings of Ziana

  • Photosensitivity: Tretinoin can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight, increasing the risk of sunburn. Use sunscreen daily and avoid sun exposure.
  • Skin irritation: Redness, dryness, and peeling are common, especially during the first few weeks of use. You may need to use a moisturizer to combat dryness or temporarily reduce the frequency of application if irritation is severe.
  • Antibiotic resistance: Long-term use of topical antibiotics like clindamycin may contribute to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Discuss the duration of treatment with your healthcare provider.
  • Pregnancy caution: Tretinoin should not be used during pregnancy due to the potential for harm to the fetus. Women of childbearing age should use effective contraception while using Ziana.

Interactions with Ziana

Common Drug Interactions

  • Topical acne medications: Combining Ziana with other acne treatments (e.g., benzoyl peroxide) may increase the risk of irritation. If needed, these should be used at different times of the day.
  • Medications that increase skin dryness: Using products like alcohol-based cleansers or exfoliating agents while on Ziana may worsen dryness and irritation.
  • Oral antibiotics: If you are taking oral antibiotics for acne, your doctor may adjust your treatment plan to avoid excessive exposure to antibiotics, which can increase the risk of resistance.

  • Benzaclin (clindamycin/benzoyl peroxide): A combination topical treatment for acne that reduces bacteria and helps clear pores.
