Dr. Katharine Cox answered

Specializes in Pediatric Emergency Medicine

Use separately : Use the clindamycin topically through the day and the vitamin A cream at night. For vitamin A less exposure to sunlight is better and as you are aware, take every step not to get Pregnant and no breast feeding. All the best.
