Zindaclin 1% Gel is a prescription topical antibiotic treatment used in the management of acne vulgaris. It contains clindamycin phosphate, a potent antibacterial agent that helps reduce the number of acne lesions and prevents future breakouts. The lightweight gel formulation is ideal for oily or acne-prone skin and is designed for once-daily application.

How It Works
Clindamycin works by inhibiting protein synthesis in Cutibacterium acnes, the bacteria commonly found on acne-prone skin. By reducing bacterial growth and inflammation, Zindaclin helps to clear existing spots and prevent the formation of new lesions. The gel base allows the active ingredient to penetrate the skin effectively without leaving a greasy residue, making it comfortable for daily use.

Why Choose Zindaclin Gel
Zindaclin is a targeted treatment that delivers antibacterial action directly to the affected skin. It’s suitable for use on the face, chest, or back and is typically well tolerated with minimal systemic absorption. The once-daily application makes it easy to integrate into any skincare routine. Zindaclin is often prescribed when topical treatments like benzoyl peroxide alone are not sufficient.

Important Note
Zindaclin should be used exactly as prescribed. Overuse may lead to bacterial resistance or increased irritation. It should not be applied to broken or sunburned skin. In rare cases, topical clindamycin has been associated with antibiotic-related colitis; discontinue use and consult a doctor if severe diarrhoea occurs. Contact with the eyes, mouth, and mucous membranes should be avoided.
