Clycin-T Lotion is a topical medication used to treat acne. It contains two active ingredients, namely clindamycin phosphate and tretinoin.
Clindamycin phosphate is an antibiotic that works by preventing the growth and multiplication of bacteria on the skin. Tretinoin is a retinoid that works by increasing skin cell turnover and decreasing the production of sebum, an oily substance that can contribute to acne.
Together, these ingredients help to reduce inflammation and treat acne by preventing the growth of bacteria and unclogging pores.
Clycin-T Lotion is typically applied to the affected areas of the skin once a day, preferably at bedtime. It is important to follow the directions provided by your healthcare provider or the product label, and to avoid using more than the recommended amount of the medication.
Common side effects of Clycin-T Lotion include dryness, peeling, and redness of the skin. If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, or if you have any concerns about using this medication, please consult with your healthcare provider.
