You have been prescribed Clindaily Topical Solution for the treatment of acne. You may have to use it for a long time before your acne starts to improve. Be patient and keep using it every day. Wash your skin with a mild cleanser and pat it dry before applying Clindaily Topical Solution. Apply it as a thin layer onto clean, dry, unbroken skin affected by acne. Avoid contact with your eyes, nose, or mouth. Rinse it off with water if you accidentally get the cream in these areas.
Before applying Clindaily Topical Solution, cleanse and dry the affected area. Gently massage the medication into your skin thoroughly. Avoid getting the medication in your eyes or mouth. If Clindaily Topical Solution enters your eyes accidentally, rinse them with plenty of water. Call a doctor if you experience eye irritation.
Use Clindaily Topical Solution for the duration recommended by your doctor. You might need to apply it for several months to achieve complete acne clearance. Even if initial benefits appear within a few weeks, you may see a gradual but definite improvement in your condition. The maximum use of Clindaily Topical Solution is typically limited to 12 weeks, although you may require multiple tubes during each treatment course.
Clindaily Topical Solution treats and prevents acne by inhibiting the growth of Propionibacterium acnes bacteria. Acne is a common skin condition, and often appears during adolescence due to increased sebum production from the skin's grease glands in response to fluctuating sex hormones. This leads to clogged pores (blackheads), allowing bacteria to invade. The resulting blockage creates a favorable environment for chemical reactions that produce red spots filled with pus, commonly known as acne lesions.
Clindaily Topical Solution is effective if used in the prescribed dosage and duration by your doctor. Never discontinue the medication even if you see improvement. Stopping early may cause symptoms to return or worsen.
Common side effects of Clindaily Topical Solution include irritation, swollen red bumps, and dryness. A rare but possible side effect is a scaly skin rash. If you experience these effects, consult your doctor.
Avoid getting Clindaily Topical Solution into your eyes or mouth. If it enters your eyes, rinse with plenty of water immediately and contact your doctor. Do not use Clindaily Topical Solution if you have known allergies to its ingredients or components. Inform your doctor if you experience any allergic reaction after the first use. If you take other medications regularly, consult your doctor about possible interactions.
Clindaily Topical Solution is effective when used as prescribed by your doctor. Never stop using it without consulting your physician even if you notice improvement in symptoms. Abrupt discontinuation may result in the return of acne or a worsening of existing symptoms.
