Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic.
You could use the above mentioned clindamycin gel on your acne in the morning. Use a gel containing 2.5% Benzoyl peroxide at bedtime. You could use a cleanser with 2 % salicylic acid to wash your face.
You will also benefit from salicylic acid based chemical peels done by a qualified dermatologist.
Eat a healthy diet. Avoid fried foods and foods high in sugar content.
Drink lots of water.
Hope this helps you.
Take care.
