A member asked:
Hi i'm currently using clindamycin gel in the morning and retin a (tretinoin) at night. is it safe for me to add hydroquinone to my routine? if so, should i apply it before or after clindamycin ?

ACNE: You are treating your acne good with 2 rx combination. If there are any discoloration, usually retin a (tretinoin) is enough to exfoliate it. The hydroquinone is best used on other hyperpigmentations.
