CLEOCIN T PADS (CLINDAMYCIN PHOSPHATE)
Description of Cleocin T Pads
Cleocin T pads are medicated pads that are most often used by individuals that are experiencing mild to moderate acne caused by bacterial growth on the skin. Cleocin T pads are medicated with Clindamycin Phosphate, an effective anti-biotic that works by stopping the growth of bacteria that are to blame for your acne.
Stop the Bacteria That Contributes to Acne
Cleocin T Pads work as a bacteriostatic medication which means it will not actually kill the bacteria responsible for your acne, but instead will inhibit protein production which the bacterium need to survive. This action prevents bacteria from being able to multiply and any remaining will die off, allowing your immune system to finish the task of removal. Cleocin T pads are available with a prescription from your doctor.
Conditions Treated by Cleocin T Pads
Acne vulgaris is the commonly occurring type of acne that is characterized by blackheads, whiteheads, pustules and cysts in the skin. It is caused by hormones that stimulate the sebaceous glands in the skin. The sebaceous glands normally produce small amounts of a thick mixture of oil and skin cells called sebum. When you have acne, these glands go into overproduction and the extra sebum can block your follicles and bacteria can move in.
Acne appears most often on the face, but can also be found on your chest, back, and upper arms. Acne can also lead to serious and permanent scarring. Acne isn't a life-threatening condition, but it can be upsetting and disfiguring and cause psychosocial problems.
Before Cleocin T Pads are Prescribed
A small amount of Clindamycin Phosphate may be absorbed into your bloodstream so discuss any precautions about using Cleocin T Pads if you are pregnant, planning on becoming pregnant, or are breast feeding. Before using Cleocin T pads, advise your doctor if you have a history of chronic hay fever or asthma; or if you have a history of intestinal diseases such as ulcerative colitis.
Cleocin T Pads Precautions and Proper Use
It may take between 2-6 weeks to notice an improvement in your condition, and up to 12 weeks to see the full benefit. Inform your doctor if your condition does not improve or gets worse. If you are using other acne products or wear make-up, allow the Clindamycin Phosphate to dry before applying anything else. Keep other medicinal products out of children’s reach and do not share them with anyone else.
