Clincitop Gel controls acne by targeting bacteria and inflammation on the face, chest, and back, while clearing existing pimples, and preventing new breakouts.

Start by cleaning the affected skin area with mild soap and water.
Pat dry the area using a clean towel.
Apply a thin film of Clincitop Gel to the area where acne appears.
After application, wash your hands properly.
Avoid contact with your eyes, mouth, lips, and mucous membranes.
Remember not to apply the gel on open wounds or sunburned skin.
For specific advice related to your condition, consult your doctor.

Clincitop Gel is applied topically.

Clincitop Gel might have the following side effects:

Skin redness
Itching or irritation
Burning sensation
Skin dryness
Peeling of the skin: The outer layer of your skin may begin to peel or flake off at the site where you apply the gel.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve upon discontinuing the use of Clincitop Gel. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

You can effectively manage common side effects like skin redness, itching, or burning sensation at home by applying a cold compress to the affected area.

Clincitop Gel contains clindamycin (1%) as the active ingredient, which works on your body in the following ways:

Clindamycin works by disrupting the process of bacterial protein synthesis.
By interfering with protein synthesis, clindamycin inhibits bacterial growth, thereby managing acne development.

Pregnancy

Is it safe to use Clincitop Gel during pregnancy?

Caution is advised while applying Clincitop Gel if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before using this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Breastfeeding women should exercise caution before using this medicine. Always discuss your health concerns with your doctor before applying this gel.

Alcohol

Interaction of alcohol with the medicine is unlikely as it's a topical medication. However, always consult your doctor if you have any doubts or questions.

Liver

Is it advisable to use Clincitop Gel when experiencing liver problems?

The medicine is applied on the skin, so it generally does not affect liver health. Nevertheless, if you have any liver problems, it's advisable to discuss them with your doctor before using the medicine.

Kidney

As Clincitop Gel is a topical product, its use typically does not involve kidney concerns. Yet, it's always best to consult your doctor if you have kidney health issues.

Using Machines & Driving

Is it safe to operate heavy machinery or drive when using Clincitop Gel?

Using machines or driving should not be affected by the application of the gel as it's a topical product. However, exercise caution and consult your doctor if you notice any adverse symptoms.

Allergy

Are there any specific conditions that should be considered before using Clincitop Gel?

The medicine is contraindicated for individuals with known allergies to clindamycin or similar components. Always inform your doctor about any allergies before starting this medicine.

Children

Is Clincitop Gel suitable for infants or children?

This medicine should be given to children only under medical supervision. Always consult your child's doctor before giving any medicine to a child.

Older Patients

Is Clincitop Gel suitable for older patients?

Older patients should use the medicine under medical supervision as they may be more susceptible to its side effects. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Clincitop Gel may interact with the following medications:

Neuromuscular blocking agents: Clindamycin may get systematically absorbed and might enhance the effects of neuromuscular blocking agents like succinylcholine or rocuronium, potentially leading to increased muscle weakness.
Other topical medications: Clincitop Gel may interact with other topical medications applied on the same area of skin. For instance, using retinoids like tretinoin or adapalene along with the gel can increase the risk of skin irritation.

Drug-Food Interactions

No specific food interactions are known with Clincitop Gel as it's for external use only.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Clincitop Gel may interact with the following diseases:

Pseudomembranous colitis: If you have a history of pseudomembranous colitis, you should use this medicine with caution. This medicine may get systematically absorbed into the body and worsen your condition.
Open wounds or cuts: Do not apply this gel on open wounds, cuts, or sunburned skin as it may worsen your condition.

Daily Dose

Your doctor will decide the daily dose of Clincitop Gel based on your personal needs. This dosage can change depending on the severity of your condition and how you respond to the medicine.

Over Dose

If you accidentally apply more than the prescribed amount, you may experience symptoms like skin redness, itching, or a burning sensation. If these symptoms persist or worsen, inform your doctor immediately.

Missed Dose

If you forget to apply the medicine at the scheduled time, do so as soon as you remember. However, if it's nearly time for the next application, skip the missed one and stick with your usual schedule. Never apply extra gel to make up for a missed dose without consulting your doctor first.

Store Clincitop Gel at room temperature, ideally below 25°C.
Keep the gel away from direct heat or sunlight; it requires a cool, dry place.
Ensure that this medicine is out of reach of children.
Always check the expiry date on the tube before using it.

Since Clincitop Gel helps manage acne, try to maintain cleanliness around your skin. Regular washing, but not excessive scrubbing, can help reduce skin oiliness and prevent acne.
A diet low in fats and sugars can also help manage acne. Include plenty of fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins in your meals for healthier skin.
