Clindamycin/benzoyperoxide Acne Treatment - Has anyone had severe side effects?
I've been using Clindamycin/benzoyl 1/5% Gel 35g Pmp for a few weeks now. I've noticed some irritation, but I'm wondering if anyone has experienced more serious side effects like those mentioned in the product description?
I've been using Clindamycin/benzoy 1/5% Gel 35g Pmp for a few weeks now to treat my acne. It's a combination of clindamycin, an antibiotic, and benzoyl peroxide, a peeling agent, designed to kill acne-causing bacteria and clear pores. I've noticed some irritation and dryness, but overall, it seems to be working. However, the product description mentions some severe side effects that are quite concerning. I haven't experienced any of these yet, but I'm wondering if anyone else has had similar experiences. It could be very useful to know what to expect if things get worse. I've been skincare my face once a day to avoid irritation.
