Clindamycin phosphate and tretinoin gel 1.2%/0.025%, is a fixed combination of 2 solubilized active ingredients in an aqueous-based gel. Clindamycin phosphate is a water soluble ester of the semi-synthetic 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: Molecular Formula: C 18 H 34 ClN 2 O 8 PS Molecular Weight: 504.97 The chemical name for tretinoin is all- trans 3,7-dimethyl-9-(2,6,6-trimethyl-1-cyclohexen-1-yl)-2,4,6,8-nonatetraenoic acid. It is a member of the retinoid family of compounds. The structural formula for tretinoin is represented below: Molecular Formula: C 20 H 28 O 2 Molecular Weight: 300.44 Clindamycin phosphate and tretinoin gel contains the following inactive ingredients: anhydrous citric acid, butylated hydroxytoluene, carbomer homopolymer (type C), edetate disodium, laureth 4, methylparaben, propylene glycol, purified water, and tromethamine. str-clinda str-treti
