CapsulesClinical Overview
Clindamycin is a lincosamide class bacteriostatic and bactericidal antibiotic. It binds reversibly to the 50S ribosomal subunit of susceptible microorganisms, inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis. Displays potent coverage against Gram-positive anaerobes, Bacteroides fragilis, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Indicated for serious skin and soft tissue infections, osteomyelitis, dental abscesses, pelvic inflammatory disease, and aspiration pneumonia.

Usage Guidelines
Swallow whole with a full glass of water while upright to avoid severe esophageal irritation and ulceration. Can be taken with or without food. Complete the full prescribed course.
General Administration Advice: Adhere strictly to the prescribed dosage, frequency, and treatment course. For oral medications, swallow with sufficient water. Never stop antibiotics, psychiatric medications, or antihypertensives abruptly without clinical direction.

Common: Diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, metallic taste, rash. Rare/Severe: Black box warning: Clostridioides difficile-associated diarrhea (pseudomembranous colitis), which can be severe and life-threatening; anaphylaxis; and Stevens-Johnson syndrome.
*Note: Individual physiological responses vary. While many patients experience few or no side effects, notify your treating physician if adverse reactions persist or if hypersensitivity (angioedema, skin rash, dyspnea) occurs.
Precautions & Warnings
Boxed warning for Clostridioides difficile-associated colitis; discontinue immediately if severe, watery, or bloody diarrhea develops. Contraindicated in patients with history of pseudomembranous colitis or regional enteritis.

Clindamycin Injection 300mg per 2ml
Clindamycin is a lincosamide class bacteriostatic and bactericidal antibiotic. It binds reversibly to the 50S ribosomal subunit of susceptible microorganisms, inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis. Displays potent coverage against Gram-positive anaerobes, Bacteroides fragilis, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Indicated for serious skin and soft tissue infections, osteomyelitis, dental abscesses, pelvic inflammatory disease, and aspiration pneumonia.
Adapalene 0.1% and Clindamycin Phosphate 1% Gel
Adapalene (0.1% w/w gel) is a third-generation synthetic retinoid on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines. It selectively modulates cellular differentiation and keratinization by binding to retinoic acid receptors beta and gamma, inhibiting microcomedone formation and down-regulating inflammatory lipoxygenase pathways. Exhibits greater chemical stability and lower cutaneous irritation than tretinoin. Indicated for the topical treatment of acne vulgaris.
Clindamycin 1% and Nicotinamide 4% Gel
Clindamycin and Nicotinamide topical gel is a dual-action anti-acne formulation. Clindamycin Phosphate (1% w/w) inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to 50S ribosomes, eradicating Cutibacterium acnes, while Nicotinamide (4% w/w, Vitamin B3) exerts potent anti-inflammatory action by suppressing IL-8 and leukotriene-mediated neutrophil chemotaxis, reducing sebum production, and stabilizing the epidermal permeability barrier. Indicated for inflammatory acne vulgaris with papules and pustules.
Clindamycin 100mg, Clotrimazole 100mg and Tinidazole 100mg Soft Gelatin Capsule (For Vaginal Use)
Clotrimazole (1% w/w cream, lotion, or dusting powder) is a versatile broad-spectrum imidazole antifungal on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines. It inhibits fungal cytochrome P450 14-alpha-demethylase, depleting ergosterol and increasing fungal cell permeability. Dusting powder formulation absorbs excess moisture in intertriginous skin folds, preventing fungal maceration. Indicated for tinea pedis, tinea cruris, tinea corporis, cutaneous candidiasis, and prevention of recurrence in sweaty body folds.
