Clindamycin Phosphate and Benzoyl Peroxide Gel, 1.2%/2.5% is a combination product with two active ingredients in a white to off-white, opaque, smooth, aqueous gel formulation intended for topical use. Clindamycin phosphate is a water-soluble ester of the semisynthetic antibiotic produced by a 7(S)-chloro-substitution of the 7(R)-hydroxyl group of the parent antibiotic lincomycin. The chemical name for clindamycin phosphate is Methyl 7-chloro-6,7,8-trideoxy-6-(1-methyl-trans-4-propyl-L-2-pyrrolidinecarboxamido)-1-thio-L-threo- α -D-galacto-octopyranoside 2 -(dihydrogen phosphate). The structural formula for clindamycin phosphate is represented below: Clindamycin phosphate: Molecular Formula: C 18 H 34 ClN 2 O 8 PS Molecular Weight: 504.97 Benzoyl peroxide is an antibacterial and keratolytic agent. The structural formula for benzoyl peroxide is represented below: Benzoyl peroxide: Molecular Formula: C 14 H 10 O 4 Molecular Weight: 242.23 Clindamycin phosphate and benzoyl peroxide gel contains the following inactive ingredients: carbomer homopolymer type C, poloxamer 124, potassium hydroxide, propylene glycol, and purified water. Each gram of clindamycin phosphate and benzoyl peroxide gel contains 1.2% of clindamycin phosphate which is equivalent to 1% clindamycin. Chemical Structure Chemical Structure
