What is Clindagel
Clindamycin
The Generic name of this drug
Treatment Summary
Clindamycin is an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections. It is derived from lincomycin and has similar effects, but offers better results. Clindamycin can be used to treat a variety of serious infections, as well as acne. It works by attacking both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Additionally, it has been used off-label to treat toxoplasmosis, malaria, and babesiosis. The drug was first isolated in Lincoln, Nebraska from soil samples.

Effectiveness
How Clindagel Affects Patients
Clindamycin works by stopping bacteria from making proteins, which helps prevent the spread of infection. It needs to be taken every six hours to be effective. It is important to be aware that Clostridium difficile associated diarrhea (CDAD) can occur with clindamycin, and can range from mild diarrhea to fatal colitis, so it should only be used for serious infections when other less toxic antibiotics are not available. Clindamycin is active against some gram-positive bacteria, as well as both gram-positive and gram-negative anaerobes, but resistance may develop over time. To make sure
How Clindagel works in the body
Clindamycin works by preventing bacteria from making proteins. It does this by attaching to the ribosome, a structure that helps make proteins from amino acids. Clindamycin has a structure similar to certain molecules that are important in protein production, so it can fit in their place and block the process. Clindamycin also kills a type of bacteria called Propionibacterium acnes, which has been linked to acne.

Clindagel Toxicity & Overdose Risk
The most toxic dose of clindamycin in mice and rats is 2540mg/kg in mice and 2190mg/kg in rats. No cases of overdose have been reported, but common symptoms may include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. One 3-year-old child was given a large dose of clindamycin and experienced mild abdominal pain and diarrhea. Activated charcoal may be used to help remove unabsorbed drug from the body. Hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis are not effective for this purpose. In cases of clindamycin overdose, general supportive measures should be taken.
