Re: Differin and Clindamycin?

all over. or..I dunno. I get acne all over so I apply it all over but I suppose if say it's only on your forehead you'd probably only need to apply it there.

Re: Differin and Clindamycin?

I can't believe how bad my skin's gotten though.. it went from mild/moderate to severely inflamed moderate acne.. Actually it may be severe. It's taken over my face since starting these two products and I've been eating super healthy but it's supposed to take some time right? I need to keep convincing myself because evertime I look at my skin without makeup I burst into tears. Keeping my fingers crossed for the Naturopath this week. Maybe she can figure something out.

Re: Differin and Clindamycin?

How are you doing now that it's been a month?

I was prescribed Differin (at night) + Clindamycin (morning) recently (two days ago in fact) and I'm wondering how it'll be. I figure the Differin is for all over, however I don't know where I should apply the Clindamycin.

Re: Differin and Clindamycin?

Well after exactly a month I switched from those two topicals to Accutane.. I just got so fed up with my skin, but now I'm experiencing an initial breakout on the accutane, which is a lot worse than what I was experiencing before. Oh man, I kind of wish I would have been patient with Differin and Clindamycin, but Accutane seems a bit more promising for me. Good luck with them though.. That combination seems to work for a lot of people, I just got impatient with the initial breakout. Gah it's always so confusing though...

Oh and I applied the Clindamycin all over as well as the differin, but I noticed that it was more drying so you may want to just put it in the areas you breakout mostly.
