Upjohn's Cleocin T lotion

The new dosage form, equivalent to clindamycin phosphate 10 mg/ml, approved on May 31 for acne vulgaris. Cleocin T lotion will reach pharmacy shelves during the week of June 26, Upjohn said. Price to wholesalers and retailers will be $ 13.60 per 60 ml bottle. The antibiotic lotion reached the approvable stage on April 27; the NDA was filed in 1984. Nelson Research & Development, bought by Ethyl Corp. in 1987, has been involved in development work with Cleocin T. Upjohn already markets Cleocin T in gel and solution formulations.
