Everthing about them is different.
Clindamycin is an antibiotic. It works by killing germs. Often it or erthromycin are somewhat effective.
Adapalene is a vitamin A derivative that puts the skin past puberty and ends the predisposition to acne. It is more effective. If female, birth defects from it are a very serious concern.
