| Pros | - No medical smells - Reduce the size of pimples - Get rid of SOME pimples |
|---|---|
| Cons | - Dry skin out |
| Bottom line | I got this product for free because my aunt is a pharmacist so she gave me this bottle of clindamyvin phosphate topical lotion %. I think it works great but if you have sensitive or very dry skin. Do not use it! |

| Pros | No more deep, hormonal acne on my chin or cheeks Easy to use with no mess Cheap |
|---|---|
| Cons | Smells Drying at first but your face will adjust; need to moisturize Takes time to see results; patience required! |
| Bottom line | I've suffered from deep, angry hormonal acne on my chin and cheeks for as long as I can remember. You know, the unpoppable kind that taunts you in the mirror. I firmly believe that the Clindets Pledgets that my doc prescribed (in combination with 2.5% benzoyl peroxide which is proven to be more effective than either of them alone) is responsible for finally clearing up my face. It's amazing! It took 1-2 months to start working but I seriously went from having at least a dozen painful zits on my face to nothing at all! My scars have even faded considerably. My nightly skin care routine: 1. Wash with Clean & Clear Foaming Facial Cleanser for Sensitive Skin 2. Wipe with Clindets Pledgets 3. Apply 2.5% Spectro Vanishing Lotion for Sensitive Skin 4. Moisturizer with Neutrogena Moisture Oil Free for Sensitive Skin In the morning, I just wash and moisturizer. Hope this works as well for you as it seems to be for me!! |

| Pros | Works for me. Very good for dry skin. Reduces redness. Cost |
|---|---|
| Cons | Took a week or two for my skin to like it. |
| Bottom line | About 10 months ago my skin went crazy. Im 24 and have had acne since i was 15. Some years worse than others. But this time it was bad, not just new acne but when it came up it got so inflamed it made my whole face bright red even under makeup. I went to the Doctor and she put me on birth control and Cindamycin lotion. I stopped using the lotion at first, it felt too light and i had very dry skin so i felt like i needed something more intense. The birthcontrol helped a lot, but when i did have new acne pop up it got very infected looking and my skin was still dry and flakey as always. I had a friend who works in a spa tell me that i needed to try a light lotion because the heavy stuff was stressing my skin out. So i pulled out the cindamycin, at first my skin got even more dry but then after a week or so, i noticed the redness and dryness was pretty much gone. I love this stuff because it works so well for me and only cost me $7 a month, my old lotion was $30 and never worked half as well even just on dryness. Now my skin is amazing, almost never dry, red and any acne is pretty rare. I also started using a dermaroller a month ago to help with my slight scars and i love it! If i use the cindamycin right after i do the dermaroller i can feel it absorb deep and wake up the next day with perfect even skin. I just wish i had figured out this system years ago. |

| Pros | Inexpensive generic available Usual topical antibiotic benefits |
|---|---|
| Cons | No big changes |
| Bottom line | I only keep using this product to make sure I have some sort of antibacterial protection during the day. It doesn't clear anything up but is somewhat preventative. |

| Pros | Nothing |
|---|---|
| Cons | When I first started using this product it worked and got rid of my pimples quickly. However just when I thought I was done with acne 3 new pimples emerged I kept using it though hoping the acne would go away since that's what the dermatologist said. More and more pimples came and took longer than ever to go down. I sill have some of the pimples from a month ago!!! |
| Bottom line | This made my acne worse and the quality of my skin awful!!! |

| Pros | Works amazing for the first 2 months Easy to apply (Cleaocin-T solution) Comes in a bottle with roll-on application Use morning and eveing Does not sting or smell Cheap in US |
|---|---|
| Cons | Expensive in Canada Does not work later on, after about 2-3 months |
| Bottom line | This is the best medicine I have used for my acne so far! Nothing ever helped me, any antibiotics or lotions, creams (and I tried so many!), this was the best thing that started to clear my face and no more new breakouts. I also tried Clindamycin lotion (that I was given by mistake, I asked for solution) and it didnt help but I went back to ask for solution and it helped right away. I used this solution 3 times in my life, however it helps only for the first 1-3 months only. Therefore I no more ask for this product. |

| Pros | Does not dry or irritate skin Lasts long time Not too expensive |
|---|---|
| Cons | Makes skin look shiny Tastes horrible (gets on lips) Doesn't clear all acne or prevent new pimples |
| Bottom line | This product helps control acne and bacteria but does not completely clear skin. It's good for people with moderate or light acne best. |

| Pros | nothing. |
|---|---|
| Cons | made it SO much worse |
| Bottom line | My acne wasn't very bad. My doctor put me on this and my acne went horrific. It was the worst it's ever been. The doctor said it was because of this medicine. I now have old red marks all over the bottom half of my face because of it. |

| Pros | The first week: -zits were dying -my face was getting better |
|---|---|
| Cons | then after 3 weeks my face became: -oily -having some breakouts |
| Bottom line | so like I don't know if I should continue using it 'cause maybe It'll get worse at first but it will get better by the time. So I'm not quite sure though, I'll give it another chance like 2 weeks? but if it doesn't work. I think I'll just stop using it. It's up to you if you'll try this. *I'm using it twice a day. One in the morning and night. |
