Yes. Clindamycin phosphate and nicotinamide gel is very effective for acne in both dry and oily skin. You can apply it once in the day preferably in the morning.

Good afternoon. It is not advisable to apply only clindamycin as the sole anti acne agent over a long period of time due to the high risk of eventual antibiotic resistance.

Dear lybrate-user, I think you can get started with some oral isotretinoin after consulting a near by dermatologist. Work on your diet and exercise as well. Continue washing your face with cetrilak or acnelak soap at least 3-4 times a day.
Do write to me if needed any further help.
