How to use Zineryt
This medicine is for cutaneous use. Always use this medicine exactly as your doctor or pharmacist has told you. Check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure.
Zineryt comes to you in a special bottle with a special applicator pad protected by a cap which you should remove just before use and replace firmly after each use.
Frequency of administration
Usually, Zineryt should be applied all over the affected area and the surrounding skin twice a day.
Directions:
1. Completely remove any make-up.
2. Wash the affected area of skin well. Then rinse with warm water and gently pat dry.
3. Apply Zineryt thinly over the affected areas with the applicator. To use Zineryt, unscrew the protective cap, hold the bottle upside down, place the pad against the skin, and spread the solution over the whole of the affected area (including the surrounding skin). The flow of solution can be increased by pressing the pad a little more firmly against the skin.
If you use the applicator properly, just the right quantity should be applied. The pad of the top of the bottle makes it easy to apply the solution to the whole of the affected area of the skin to be treated.
4. If you want to apply make-up, use the medicine first and let it dry.
If you do put too much on, blot it off with some tissue, and make sure it does not run into the eyes, nose
or mouth. If it does, wash well with plenty of water.
If you forget to use Zineryt
Try not to forget to use Zineryt, as missing an application will slow down the healing process. If you have missed an application, use Zineryt when you remember, but leave about three hours before you use it again.
If you stop using Zineryt
If you stop using Zineryt, the original symptoms may come back. Always contact your doctor if you want to stop using Zineryt.
If drying of the skin occurs while using Zineryt, you may wish to try applying every second night or using a non-comedogenic moisturiser.
Duration of treatment
Successful treatment of acne may take several weeks or even months. The normal treatment time is 10 to 12 weeks. Consult your doctor if you still have acne at the end of the prescribed course of treatment.
Swallowing the entire contents of a single pack of Zineryt would mainly lead to symptoms associated with alcohol intake. You should contact your doctor or pharmacist if you or somebody else accidentally swallows this medicine.
If you have any further questions on the use of this medicine, ask your doctor, pharmacist or nurse.
Warnings
Do not use Zineryt
- if you are allergic to erythromycin or zinc or any of the other ingredients of this medicine

Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor, pharmacist or nurse before using Zineryt.
- Cross resistance may occur with other antibiotics of the macrolide group and also with lincomycin and clindamycin.
