A Pilot Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Fixed Dose Combination Clindamycin Phosphate 1.2%/Tretinoin 0.025% Gel Alone Versus Fixed Dose Combination Clindamycin Phosphate 1.2%/Tretinoin 0.025% Gel Plus Benzoyl Peroxide 6% Foaming Cloths in the Treatment of Facial Acne Vulgaris

There are many different factors that cause acne. So combination treatment using different
medications that can address these different factors is commonly used to treat acne.
Fixed-dose combination clindamycin phosphate 1.2% and tretinoin 0.025% gel and benzoyl
peroxide 6% foaming cloths are both used to treat acne. This study will evaluate the use of
the medications when used together.
