ABOUT THE MEDICATION
Treclin gel is a prescription only topical gel used to treat skin conditions like acne.

How Treclin Works
Treclin gel is a dual action medicine containing two active ingredients. The first is clindamycin, an antibiotic which kills the bacteria on the skin that causes spots.
The second ingredient is tretinoin which works to improve the skin at a cellular level, helping your skin to to shed dead skin cells rather than letting them block your follicles.
Treclin gel is prescribed to treat severe acne in adults and children over the age of 12 years. Yes, it starts early. You already knew that, right? You have to apply the gel daily and keep using it for some weeks before you see the results.
In Practice
It may take up to 12 weeks of continuous use before you start to see the benefits and improvements to your skin. Do not stop using the gel once your acne clears.
Do not use more that the recommended amount. You will not get better or faster results by using more gel. Using too much gel may irritate the skin and cause redness and peeling.
Acne can not only cause physical effects, but it can also sometimes affect a persons confidence and make them feel unhappy with their skin. Treclin gel is a simple and efficient way of treating the physical effects of acne, which in turn can also help with the mental effects too.
Dosing & How to Apply
Treclin gel should always be applied to clean skin, so wash your face using a gentle soap and some warm water. Pat your skin dry with a soft towel.
Squeeze out a pea-sized blob onto your finger tip. Dap the gel onto your forehead, chin, nose and cheeks. Gently spread the gel over the whole face using the tips of your fingers.
If you forget to apply the gel at bedtime, don’t apply a double dose to make up for the forgotten dose. Just continue to apply it as you normally would at the usual time.
The best time to use the gel is after you have cleansed and removed any makeup, which is usually just before you go to bed. Do not apply the gel at the same time as other creams or cosmetic products.
