CLINDAMYCIN PH 1% GEL

What it is

CLINDAMYCIN PH 1% GEL is how the CMS NADAC file names this product. The FDA NDC Directory lists it as “clindamycin phosphate” and “clindamycin phosphate gel usp, 1%”, as its NDCs’ listings variously write the nonproprietary name.

FDA gives its dosage form as gel and its route as topical.

FDA lists 10 labelers (the companies named on the label) for its NDCs, among them E. Fougera & Co. a division of Fougera Pharmaceuticals, LLC, NORTHSTAR RX LLC and Encube Ethicals, Inc.

FDA’s Established Pharmacologic Class for it is Lincosamide Antibacterial.

The NADAC file of 2026-10-14 prices it under 20 NDCs (National Drug Codes).

NADAC classes it as a generic drug (rate-setting class G), and does not mark it as sold over the counter.

What pharmacies pay

Pharmacies pay $0.13 – $0.14 for 1 g, depending on the NDC ($0.13074 to $0.14236 per GM), by the CMS NADAC file of 2026-10-14; that price took effect on 2026-09-23. That is what pharmacies pay their suppliers, not what they charge you.

What to ask at the counter

None of these figures is your price: what you pay depends on your pharmacy, your insurance, coupons and discounts.

• What is your cash price for 1 g? Is it lower than what I would pay through my insurance?
• Which NDC (the 11-digit number on the package) is this? Pharmacies pay $0.13074 to $0.14236 per GM for this product, depending on the NDC.
• How much is in the package I am getting? This page uses 1 g; your package may hold a different amount.
• These are questions about price, not medical advice. Do not change or stop a medicine without talking to your prescriber or pharmacist.
