INDICATION
CABTREO (clindamycin phosphate, adapalene and benzoyl peroxide) Topical Gel 1.2%/0.15%/3.1% is indicated for the topical treatment of acne vulgaris in adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
CONTRAINDICATIONS
CABTREO is contraindicated in patients with:
- known hypersensitivity to clindamycin, adapalene, benzoyl peroxide, any components of the formulation, or lincomycin.
- history of regional enteritis, ulcerative colitis, or antibiotic-associated colitis.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Hypersensitivity: Hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, angioedema, and urticaria, have been reported. If a serious hypersensitivity reaction occurs, discontinue CABTREO immediately and initiate appropriate therapy.
Colitis: Clindamycin can cause severe colitis, which may result in death. Discontinue CABTREO if diarrhea occurs.
Photosensitivity: CABTREO may increase sensitivity to ultraviolet light. Avoid or minimize exposure to sunlight and sunlamps. Wear sunscreen and protective clothing when sun exposure cannot be avoided.
Skin Irritation and Allergic Contact Dermatitis: Stinging/burning/pain, erythema, dryness, irritation, exfoliation, and dermatitis may occur with use of CABTREO and may necessitate discontinuation. Weather extremes, such as wind or cold, may be irritating to patients under treatment with CABTREO. Depending upon severity, patients can use a moisturizer, reduce frequency of application, or discontinue use. Avoid applying CABTREO to areas of broken, eczematous, or sunburned skin, and concomitant use with other potentially irritating topical products. Avoid use of “waxing” as a depilatory method on skin treated with CABTREO.
Use of CABTREO with concomitant topical acne therapy has not been evaluated.
ADVERSE REACTIONS
The most common adverse reactions (occurring in >1% of the CABTREO group and greater than the vehicle group) were application site reactions, pain, erythema, dryness, irritation, exfoliation, and dermatitis.
DRUG INTERACTIONS
Use CABTREO with caution in patients receiving neuromuscular blocking agents.
