I use clindamyacin in the am adapalene at pm- but says to use clindamyacin twice a day.. when should my second application be/can i use both together?

Adapalene is a : once a day application. The new medicine epiduo contains adapalene and benzoyl peroxide ( that is antibacterial like Clinda). Its all in one and once a day, if your insurance won't cover it, then i would do Clinda in am and you can put adapalene on at bedtime and cover with Clinda when dry.
