Frequently Asked Questions
After using Zineryt an initial worsening of acne, referred to as “purging,” may occur. Increased breakouts can sometimes happen when the treatment accelerates the turnover of skin cells, bringing underlying blockages and impurities to the surface faster than they would naturally appear. This is not as common with Zineryt as with some other acne treatments like retinoids but is possible.
If you wish to apply make-up, apply Zineryt beforehand and wait for it to dry first.
If you forget an application of Zineryt, continue your next dose as usual. You should not apply more than the prescribed amount to compensate, as this may irritate your skin. Forgetting the odd application will not have any long-term effects on your treatment.
It usually takes around 8-12 weeks for optimum results. If you have not seen any results after 8 weeks, you should contact your doctor or pharmacist for advice. If the treatment has been successful after 12 weeks, you should stop using Zineryt. You can continue to use it again if the acne returns later.
One bottle of Zineryt has a shelf life of 8 weeks. Our pharmacists will make up the preparation in our pharmacy, using a sterile technique.
Zineryt is effective in treating acne that is associated with a presence of bacteria. There can be many causes for acne.
