WHAT _ZINDACLIN GEL_ IS USED FOR
Zindaclin Gel is used to treat mild to
moderate acne (spots).
WHAT IS ACNE?
Acne is an extremely common skin
condition most common in
adolescence, but not restricted to this
stage of life. During adolescence,
glands in the skin produce extra
grease in response to sex hormones
in the body, and this can cause
blocked pores, resulting in
blackheads. When this happens the
pores are invaded by bacteria. The
chemicals produced by these bacteria
go into deeper layers of the skin and
produce red spots filled with pus.
HOW _ZINDACLIN GEL_ WORKS
Zindaclin Gel contains an antibiotic
clindamycin that reduces the number
of bacteria and stops the skin pores
becoming blocked and new spots
forming. Zindaclin Gel may also help
to reduce the redness of the spots you
already have. It will take some time
once you have started using
Zindaclin Gel before you see your
acne improving.
BEFORE YOU USE _ZINDACLIN GEL_
_When you must not use it _
➢
If you are allergic (hypersensitive)
to the active substance clindamycin
phosphate or
any of the other ingredients (see
section
_inactive ingredients_
).
➢
If you are allergic (hypersensitive)
to lincomycin, another type of
antibiotic.
An allergic reaction may include a
rash, red skin, itching, swelling or
breathing difficulties. Zindaclin Gel
should not be used by children under
the age of 12 years.

_4.3 Contraindications_
ZINDACLIN is contra-indicated in
patients with a hypersensitivity to the
active substance clindamycin or to
any of the excipients in the medicinal
product. Although cross-sensitization to
lincomycin has not been demonstrated,
it is recommended that ZINDACLIN
should not be used in patients who have
demonstrated lincomycin sensitivity.
_4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use_
Oral and parenteral clindamycin,
as well as most other antibiotics,
have been associated with severe
pseudomembranous colitis. Topical
clindamycin has very rarely been
associated with pseudomembranous
colitis; however if diarrhoea occurs
the product should be discontinued
immediately.
Studies indicate a toxin(s) produced by
_Clostridium difficile _is the major cause
of antibiotic-associated colitis. Colitis is
usually characterized by severe persistent
diarrhoea and abdominal cramps.
Should antibiotic-associated colitis occur,
appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic
measures (such as vancomycin treatment)
