Zydus Cadila has received the final approval from the USFDA to market Clindamycin Phosphate and Benzoyl Peroxide Gel, (US RLD – DUAC® Gel), 1.2%/5%.
It will be manufactured at the group’s Topical manufacturing facility at Ahmedabad. This combination medication is used to treat a certain type of acne (inflammatory acne vulgaris).
It helps to decrease the number of acne pimples. Clindamycin is an antibiotic that stops the growth of acne-causing bacteria. Benzoyl peroxide can also stop the growth of bacteria as well as reduce oil production in the skin.
The group now has 242 approvals and has so far filed over 340 ANDAs since the commencement of the filing process in FY 2003-04.
