Didn't work as well as any over-the counter product I've used.

It worked pretty well while I was on it.
I used along with Benzoyl Peroxide and my face cleared up for awhile. I still had a pimple hear and there while I was ont it but break outs were minimal.
I like using this, but you usually need to use it with another medication for it do really be able to work effectively.

Two years i have used it and alone it does barely anything. Only when combined with minocin did I see results. But I developed a tolerance for minocin and now that doesnt help.

This is an awsome product, my skin was better in a couple of weeks. Just use it 2 times a day and it works at its best.

Clindamycin works out okay if you are consistent and regular. Only thing is my prescription plan charges me $40 every time I get it!!

clindamycin works well depending on your acne. it helps a lot, and you see a difference within a few days. however once you stop, it all comes back. sometimes your face may burn.
