Cleocin-T Gel


Generic Name: Clindamycin Gel (klin-da-MYE-sin)
Brand Name: Examples include Cleocin-T and Clindamax

Cleocin-T Gel is used for:

Treating severe acne. It may also be used to treat other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Cleocin-T Gel is a topical lincomycin antibiotic. It works by killing sensitive bacteria causing acne and reducing the amount of free fatty acids that irritate the skin surface.

Do NOT use Cleocin-T Gel if:

  • you are allergic to any ingredient in Cleocin-T Gel or to lincomycin
  • you have Crohn disease, antibiotic-associated colitis, or ulcerative colitis

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Before using Cleocin-T Gel:

Some medical conditions may interact with Cleocin-T Gel. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

  • if you are pregnant, plan to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding
  • if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement
  • if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances
  • if you have a gastrointestinal (bowel) disease or diarrhea

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Cleocin-T Gel. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:

  • Nondepolarizing muscle relaxants (eg, vecuronium) or succinylcholine because the actions and side effects of these medicines may be increased
  • Erythromycin because the effectiveness of Cleocin-T Gel may be decreased

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Cleocin-T Gel may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.

How to use Cleocin-T Gel:

Use Cleocin-T Gel as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

  • Cleocin-T Gel is for topical use on the skin only.
  • Clean and dry the affected area. Cover the affected and surrounding area with a thin film of medicine.
  • Cleocin-T Gel works best if it is used at the same time each day.
  • To clear up your infection completely, continue using Cleocin-T Gel for the full course of treatment even if you feel better in a few days.
  • If you miss a dose of Cleocin-T Gel, use it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule.
