When you first start using these treatments, start slowly and alternate them. Wash with a gentle cleanser and dry your face, wait about 10 minutes if you have the time, use the clindamycin one night and the Retin-A the next night. They can both be somewhat drying and irritating, so starting slowly will build up a tolerance to them. Once you are tolerating the treatment, wash and dry your face, apply the clindamycin, let it dry, and then apply the Retin-A. You can apply an oil-free moisturizer or sunscreen in the morning.
For optimal results I recommend using both products together in the evening before you go to bed. RetinA will help Hydoquinone penetrate better and give you better results. Consult your physician prior to starting these products. Hope this helps. Dr. Grant...

Consider Benzyl Peroxides, and oral antibiotics. You should be seen by a Dermatologist. Acne is not treated souly by mono therapy. Make sure you wear a good sunscreen daily and reapply when you are out in sun. Good luck Dr. Grant...
