Zindaclin 1% Gel is an acne treatment which uses an antibiotic called clindamycin to treat your spots. It helps to keep your pores from blocking, reducing the number of spots you’ll get and reducing redness in the area. If you have acne and have found that regular skincare and over the counter remedies haven’t helped to clear up your skin, you might find that Zindaclin is the right treatment for you.

How Zindaclyn works

Clindamycin is the active ingredient in Zindaclin gel, and it works as an antibiotic. It fights the bacteria that cause acne, reducing their numbers and keeping them from clogging your pores and creating spots. It can be used on breakouts on your face, back, and chest, as well as other areas, helping to reduce redness along with your spots and blackheads.

Directions

Before using Zindaclin gel, you should wash your hands and the area where you usually get spots and pat it dry gently. Apply a thin layer of gel to the area where you get your spots, making sure to only use a small amount. Do this once a day and wash your hands again after each application. You should continue to use this gel for as long as your doctor tells you to do so. When you’re applying this acne gel, make sure that you do not:

• Apply the gel to any area of skin that does not usually get spots
• Dab the gel onto individual spots
• Apply a thick layer of gel to any area - it will not clear your spots more quickly
• Apply in or around your eyes, the inside of your nose or in your mouth

Side effects

Like all medications, Zindaclin gel can have side effects, although not everyone will experience them. These side effects include:

• Dry skin
• Redness of the skin
• Burning skin
• Irritation around your eyes
• Your acne getting worse
• Itching
• Painful skin
• A scaly rash
• Diarrhoea with blood and mucus, which will need immediate medical attention

If you experience these or any other side effects while using this product, speak to your doctor or pharmacist. For more information about reporting the side effects of medication, please see the MHRA’s Yellow Card Scheme.

Warnings

Zindaclin gel is not suitable for use in children under the age of 12. Do not use this product if you are allergic to clindamycin, lincomycin (another type of antibiotic), or any of the listed ingredients in this product. If you have any inflammatory bowel disease (such as ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease) or have diarrhoea after you take antibiotics, you should tell your prescriber about this during your first consultation. This gel is for external use only, avoid contact with eyes or other sensitive areas.

Other medication

If you’re taking any other medication, including herbal remedies or medications you obtained without a prescription, you should tell your prescriber about this during your consultation. Some medications can interact when used together, making the active ingredients less effective or causing unwanted side effects. Our prescribers will be able to assess the medications you are taking and whether Zindaclin gel will be the best possible treatment for you.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

You should not use Zindaclin clindamycin gel during your pregnancy unless you are specifically told to do so by your doctor. You should not use this product during pregnancy, as clindamycin can pass into your breastmilk, even if you’re only using it on your skin. Acne is common during pregnancy, as the changes in your hormones can cause breakouts. If this happens to you and is severe enough to need treatment, you should speak to your doctor or pharmacist and ask them to recommend a suitable treatment that you can use until the end of your pregnancy.
