A member asked:

Could clindamycin lotion 1% used for my acne be the cause of my nausea and stomach cramps?

No: Look for some other cause of your GI troubles. You may have an ulcer. It's also important that you also use topical benzoyl peroxide or retinoic acid with your clindamycin.

Only if drinking: ...the lotion. Topical clinda will not cause you nausea and cramping. Drink more fluids and be kind to your body in the hot weather. Eat small meals.
