How BenzaClin® Works

BenzaClin® is a topical prescription acne product that combines the acne-fighting power of two active ingredients: benzoyl peroxide and clindamycin

Benzoyl peroxide is an ingredient commonly used to fight acne. It is helpful in reducing inflammation of acne. Benzoyl peroxide is also effective at drying the oil commonly found in patients with acne vulgaris.

Clindamycin is an antibiotic that helps fight bacteria and reduces inflammation of pimples.

How to use BenzaClin®

Before application, gently wash your face with a mild cleanser and warm water. Pat dry. Apply a small amount to not only the pimple, but to the entire area affected such as the chin or forehead as directed by a doctor. Plus, BenzaClin® can be applied before your makeup application, which means it can fit into your daily skincare routine.

BenzaClin® should be applied twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening, or as directed by your doctor.

Remember to follow your doctor's instructions. For any treatment to work effectively the dosing schedule should be followed.

Be sure to contact your doctor right away if you are experiencing any side effects from BenzaClin®.

Be patient, as all treatments take time to work.
