Benzaclin Gel


Pronunciation: KLIN-da-MYE-sin/BEN-zoe-il per-OX-ide
Generic Name: Clindamycin/Benzoyl Peroxide
Brand Name: Benzaclin


Benzaclin Gel is used for:

Treating acne.


Benzaclin Gel is an antibiotic and drying agent combination. It works by stopping the bacterial infection that causes acne.


Do NOT use Benzaclin Gel if:


  • you are allergic to any ingredient in Benzaclin Gel or to lincomycin

  • you have a history of Crohn disease, inflammation of the colon caused by antibiotics, pseudomembranous colitis, regional enteritis, or ulcerative colitis

  • you are using a product that contains erythromycin

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.



Before using Benzaclin Gel:


Some medical conditions may interact with Benzaclin Gel. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:


  • if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding

  • if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement

  • if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances

  • if you have a stomach or intestinal disease

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Benzaclin Gel. Because little, if any, of Benzaclin Gel is absorbed into the blood, the risk of it interacting with another medicine is low.


Ask your health care provider if Benzaclin Gel may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.


How to use Benzaclin Gel:


Use Benzaclin Gel as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.


  • Use Benzaclin Gel on a regular schedule to get the most benefit from it.

  • Before applying Benzaclin Gel to the affected areas, gently wash and rinse the skin with warm water and pat dry. Apply a thin film of medicine to the affected skin and rub in as directed by your doctor. Wash your hands immediately after using Benzaclin Gel.

  • Continue to use Benzaclin Gel even if your condition improves. Do not miss any doses.

  • If you miss a dose of Benzaclin Gel, use it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not use 2 doses at once.

Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Benzaclin Gel.



Important safety information:


  • Benzaclin Gel is for external use only. Avoid contact with the eyes, nose, mouth, and other mucous membranes. If you get Benzaclin Gel in your eyes, rinse them immediately with cool water.

  • Benzaclin Gel may bleach hair or colored fabric. Avoid getting Benzaclin Gel in your hair or on your clothes.

  • Once you begin using Benzaclin Gel, it may take several weeks before you begin to see improvement. If your symptoms do not improve by 11 weeks or if they become worse, check with your doctor.

  • Talk with your doctor before you use any other topical acne medicines or cleansers on your skin.

  • Do not use Benzaclin Gel for other conditions at a later time.

  • Benzaclin Gel may cause you to become sunburned more easily. Avoid the sun, sunlamps, or tanning booths until you know how you react to Benzaclin Gel. Use a sunscreen or wear protective clothing if you must be outside for more than a short time.

  • Long-term or repeated use of Benzaclin Gel may cause a second infection. Tell your doctor if signs of a second infection occur. Your medicine may need to be changed to treat this.

  • Be sure to use Benzaclin Gel for the full course of treatment. If you do not, the medicine may not clear up your infection completely. The bacteria could also become less sensitive to this or other medicines. This could make the infection harder to treat in the future.

  • If severe diarrhea, stomach pain or cramping, or bloody stools develop during treatment or within several months after treatment with Benzaclin Gel, check with your doctor or pharmacist right away. Do not treat it without first checking with your doctor.

  • Benzaclin Gel should be used with extreme caution in CHILDREN younger than 12 years old; safety and effectiveness in these children have not been confirmed.

  • PREGNANCY and BREAST-FEEDING: If you become pregnant, contact your doctor. You will need to discuss the benefits and risks of using Benzaclin Gel while you are pregnant. It is not known if Benzaclin Gel is found in breast milk after topical use. Do not breast-feed while using Benzaclin Gel.

How should I use Balmex (zinc oxide topical)?


Use exactly as directed on the label, or as prescribed by your doctor. Do not use in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended.


Apply enough of this medication to cover the entire area to be treated. Zinc oxide often leaves a thin white residue that may not be entirely rubbed in.


To treat chapped skin, minor burn wounds, or other skin irritations, use the medication as often as needed. Apply a thin layer to the affected area and rub in gently.


To treat diaper rash, use this medication each time the diaper is changed. It is especially important to apply the medication at bedtime or whenever there will be a long period of time between diaper changes.


Keep the diaper area clean and dry to prevent worsening of skin rash. Change wet diapers as soon as possible. Allow the skin to dry thoroughly before putting on a fresh diaper.


When using the powder form of this medicine, pour the powder slowly to avoid a large puff into the air. Do not allow a baby to handle a powder bottle during use. Always close the lid after using the powder.

Zinc oxide rectal suppositories come with patient instructions for safe and effective use. Follow these directions carefully. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions.


Wash your hands before and after inserting a rectal suppository.

Try to empty your bowel and bladder just before using the suppository. Cleanse and dry your rectal area thoroughly.


Remove the outer wrapper from the suppository before inserting it. Avoid handling the suppository too long or it will melt in your hands.


For best results, stay lying down after inserting the suppository and hold it in your rectum for a few minutes. The suppository will melt quickly once inserted and you should feel little or no discomfort while holding it in.


Stop using this medication and call your doctor if your condition does not improve within 7 days of treatment. Store at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Keep the tube cap tightly closed when not in use. You may store zinc oxide rectal suppositories in a refrigerator to prevent melting.

What happens if I miss a dose?


Since zinc oxide is used on an as needed basis, you are not likely to miss a dose. Using extra zinc oxide to make up a missed dose will not make the medication more effective.

Seek emergency medical attention or call the Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222.

Therapeutic Class: Diagnostic Agent, Radiological Contrast Media


Uses For Baro-Cat


Barium sulfate is a radiopaque agent. Radiopaque agents are used to help diagnose certain medical problems. Since radiopaque agents are opaque to (block) x-rays, the areas of the body in which they are localized will appear white on the x-ray film. This creates the needed distinction, or contrast, between one organ and other tissues. The contrast will help the doctor see any special conditions that may exist in that organ or part of the body.


Barium sulfate is taken by mouth or given rectally by enema. If taken by mouth, it makes the esophagus, the stomach, and/or the small intestine opaque to the x-rays so that they can be "photographed". If it is given by enema, the colon and/or the small intestine can be seen and photographed by x-rays.


The dose of barium sulfate will be different for different patients and depends on the type of test. The strength of the suspension and tablet is determined by how much barium they contain. Different tests will require a different strength and amount of suspension (some may require the tablet form), depending on the age of the patient, the contrast needed, and the x-ray equipment used.


Barium sulfate is to be used only by or under the direct supervision of a doctor.


Before Using Baro-Cat


In deciding to use a diagnostic test, any risks of the test must be weighed against the good it will do. This is a decision you and your doctor will make. Also, other things may affect test results. For this test, the following should be considered:


Allergies


Tell your doctor if you have ever had any unusual or allergic reaction to this medicine or any other medicines. Also tell your health care professional if you have any other types of allergies, such as to foods, dyes, preservatives, or animals. For non-prescription products, read the label or package ingredients carefully.


Pediatric


Although there is no specific information comparing use of barium sulfate in children with use in other age groups, this agent is not expected to cause different side effects or problems in children than it does in adults.


Geriatric


This contrast agent has been used in older people and has not been shown to cause different side effects or problems in them than it does in younger adults.


Interactions with Medicines


Although certain medicines should not be used together at all, in other cases two different medicines may be used together even if an interaction might occur. In these cases, your doctor may want to change the dose, or other precautions may be necessary. Tell your healthcare professional if you are taking any other prescription or nonprescription (over-the-counter [OTC]) medicine.


Interactions with Food/Tobacco/Alcohol


Certain medicines should not be used at or around the time of eating food or eating certain types of food since interactions may occur. Using alcohol or tobacco with certain medicines may also cause interactions to occur. Discuss with your healthcare professional the use of your medicine with food, alcohol, or tobacco.


Other Medical Problems


The presence of other medical problems may affect the use of this diagnostic test. Make sure you tell your doctor if you have any other medical problems, especially:


  • Asthma, hay fever, or other allergies (history of)—If you have a history of these conditions, the risk of having a reaction, such as an allergic reaction to the additives in the barium sulfate preparation, is greater

  • Cystic fibrosis—The risk of blockage in the small bowel is greater

  • Dehydration—Barium sulfate may cause severe constipation

  • Intestinal blockage or perforation—Barium sulfate may make this condition worse

Proper Use of barium sulfate

This section provides information on the proper use of a number of products that contain barium sulfate. It may not be specific to Baro-Cat. Please read with care.


Dosing


The dose of this medicine will be different for different patients. Follow your doctor's orders or the directions on the label. The following information includes only the average doses of this medicine. If your dose is different, do not change it unless your doctor tells you to do so.


The amount of medicine that you take depends on the strength of the medicine. Also, the number of doses you take each day, the time allowed between doses, and the length of time you take the medicine depend on the medical problem for which you are using the medicine.


Precautions While Using Baro-Cat


Make sure to drink plenty of liquids after the test. Otherwise, barium sulfate may cause severe constipation.


Baro-Cat Side Effects


Along with its needed effects, a medicine may cause some unwanted effects. Although not all of these side effects may occur, if they do occur they may need medical attention.


Check with your doctor immediately if any of the following side effects occur:


Rare

  • constipation (severe, continuing)

  • cramping (severe)

  • nausea or vomiting

  • stomach or lower abdominal pain

  • tightness in chest or troubled breathing
