Skin Care Review: Clindamycin phosphate topical solution, pledget 1%

Rating
Adverse Effects

Benefits
The benefits are the convenient pretreated pads.

Drawbacks
It only works on the bacteria that causes acne. It does nothing for whiteheads.

Details
I used clindamycin pledgets for about a 1 1/2 months with very up and down results. First of all it caused me to have two allegic reactions when I used the product with a skin toner and again when I used an exfoliant. I broke out into little fine bumps all over my face on two separate occasions in addition to the acne that I still had. I do not have sensitive skin and I have used both the toner and the exfoliant before without any adverse effects. The clindamycin only works on the bacteria that causes new acne, so it did little or nothing for my existing whiteheads that I had. I saw very little benefits over the course of a month and half while using this product.

Conclusions
If prescibed this product understand what other facial products you can or cannot use.
