Can i use Clindamycin phosphate topical gel to relieve diaper rash?

No!!!! As a pharmacist I advise you to NEVER use clindamycin drug products unless under medical supervision! Potentially serious side effects might arise. Clindamycin is to be used only when necessary and will treat only certain infections, which will have to be diagnosed by a doctor. In any other case it may potentially do harm, result in serious side effects or at best have no benefit whatsoever. Please ask the advice of your doctor or at least a pharmacist, who will have to evaluate the case. Best wishes!

Yes it can be used in conjunction with retina a. I have acne that become as big as a mosquito bite. I have tried to hide it by using a bandage. I have had enough of having two white headed pimples. Therefore I went to a dermatologist. I told him I was using Rein A and he suggested that I use Clindamycin at bed time along with the retin a. Directions that were given to me were use the retin a as directed by applying a small amount onto face avoiding the eye areas. Then apply a small amount of the Clindamycin on top. I have used these for a month and have not had any large breakouts that I use to have.
