CLINDAMYCIN PHOSPHATE GEL VS SOLUTION
Greetings
Would like to know the basic difference between the gel and the solution version of this chemical. Is the solution used for peeling by doctors ? Is it stronger than the gel version ?

Gel is for well-defined areas like pimples, whereas solution is for when you need to spread the medicine over large/difficult areas like the back or the scalp.
Clindamycin does not have any peeling effect.
The strength of the formulation will be given in terms of percentage over the container/covering box, which depends on how much weight of drug is there per weight or volume of the formulation.
