Clindamycin phosphate lotion
Has anyone on here used clindamycin phosphate lotion and had this reaction?
About 3 weeks ago I started using the lotion twice a day (prescribed by doctor) along side cera-v benzoyl peroxide foaming wash (using that once a day). My face got extremely dry so I also added amazons oil free face moisturizer, Neutrogena oil free face sunscreen, and amazons oil free make up remover.
A little bit before adding the moisturizer, sunscreen, and makeup remover I started to notice these little bumps/white heads on my forehead. My forehead was the only spot that was clear prior to starting the clindamycin lotion. I have a few of the white heads and bumps on the rest of my face to but nothing like my forehead.
I googled it and it said that the lotion can cause non problem areas to react to it. So I stopped using it on my forehead and only moisturized my forehead a little bit now. However it seems to have gotten worse on my forehead, hair line, and temples. They are now covered in these clusters.
Is this a normal reaction to the product working? Or did I just start a whole new problem while trying to fix the original one?
When I wake up in the morning my face is an oil slick compared to what it use to be. I have combo skin. I’m just not sure if this is helping or making things worse. I’d love to hear other peoples experience with this product and the process they had with it too. Thanks In advance to anyone who may comment.
