Conclusion:

Taken together, these findings suggest that the novel microsphere technology allows high concentration of tretinoin to be delivered at the acne site in a controlled manner for a longer duration and thus reducing irritation. The discontinuation rates can be a critical factor for patients’ adherence to treatment amongst available tretinoin and clindamycin combinations in Indian scenario, thus this controlled-release, once-daily, gel-based formulation of tretinoin and clindamycin could be considered as a potential option to improve patients’ compliance and overall therapeutic outcomes.
