Frequently Asked Questions for Clindamycin and Benzoyl Peroxide Gel (generic Duac)

What It Is

Clindamycin and Benzoyl Peroxide Gel (Generic Duac) is an acne treatment that combines two powerful ingredients—clindamycin, an antibiotic, and benzoyl peroxide, an acne-fighting agent. This gel works to reduce the appearance of blackheads, whiteheads, and inflamed pimples by treating the underlying causes of acne, including bacteria and clogged pores.

How It Works

Clindamycin helps to reduce acne-causing bacteria, particularly Propionibacterium acnes, while benzoyl peroxide works to clear out blocked pores and remove dead skin cells. The combination of these two active ingredients works synergistically to eliminate acne lesions and prevent new ones from forming, making it an effective treatment for moderate to severe acne.

How to Use

Apply a thin layer of Clindamycin and Benzoyl Peroxide Gel to the affected areas of your skin once or twice daily, following the instructions provided by your healthcare professional. Before applying, cleanse your skin gently to remove dirt and oil. Avoid using excessive amounts, and ensure the gel is fully absorbed before applying any other skincare products.

Side Effects

Common side effects include skin irritation, dryness, burning sensations, and redness at the application site. In rare cases, users may experience swelling, severe irritation, or an allergic reaction. If any of these side effects occur or persist, discontinue use and consult your doctor.

Warnings and Precautions

Clindamycin and Benzoyl Peroxide Gel should not be used on broken, irritated, or sunburned skin. Avoid contact with eyes, mouth, or mucous membranes. This medication can increase sensitivity to sunlight, so sunscreen is recommended during use. It is not suitable for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and you should consult a doctor before starting this treatment if you have any medical conditions or concerns.
