Description
Clindamycin Hydrochloride Product Overview
Clindamycin hydrochloride is a white to off-white crystalline powder that is freely soluble in water. Clindamycin is a semi-synthetic derivative of Lincomycin Hydrochloride, with a chlorine atom that improves oral absorption and activity. Its strength is expressed as potency in µg of clindamycin per mg.
Pharmaceutical companies use the hydrochloride mainly in oral capsules. Other salts serve other dosage forms: clindamycin phosphate for injections and topical gels and lotions, and clindamycin palmitate for pediatric oral solutions. Veterinary producers use it in capsules, tablets and oral solutions for dogs and cats.
Clindamycin is often compared with macrolides such as Erythromycin and Azithromycin. Zyntex supplies it from qualified API producers, only to companies licensed for pharmaceutical or veterinary use.
