Buy Zineryt Acne Solution
Zineryt Acne Solution is an acne treatment that helps to clear up spot breakouts. If you have severe acne but haven’t had any luck with over-the-counter (OTC) treatments, a prescription remedy like this one may be the right choice for you.
It’s ideal for those who suffer from long-term acne and need reliable treatment that will help manage one breakout and provide noticeable improvements to their skin.
How Zineryt Acne Solution works
Zineryt Acne Solution uses a combination of two active ingredients to treat your acne breakouts.
The first is 40mg of erythromycin, an antibiotic that reduces the number of bacteria on your skin. By fighting this bacteria, this solution helps keep your pores clear so they won’t clog and cause spots. It also helps to ease redness and inflammation.
The second ingredient is 12mg of zinc acetate, a mineral your body uses to make new cells. It’s included in this treatment to help encourage skin healing.
Directions
Always use Zineryt Acne Solution exactly as described in the patient information leaflet or as your doctor / Chemist4U pharmacist has told you.
Before using Zineryt to treat your acne, you should wash your hands and the area where you will apply the treatment thoroughly and gently pat it dry.
Each bottle of Zineryt comes with an applicator pad attached. When applying your treatment, simply remove the cap from the bottle and press the applicator pad to your skin. Use it to spread the solution over the entire area affected by your acne, including the surrounding skin.
If you accidentally apply a little bit too much, you can gently blot it away with a tissue. Do this twice daily: once in the morning and once in the evening.

Can I still wear makeup if I’m using this acne treatment?
Yes, you can still wear makeup while using Zineryt to treat your acne.
You should apply the treatment first and then let it dry completely before applying your makeup over the top.
The next time you apply the treatment you should make sure that your makeup has been thoroughly removed first.
How long will I need to use Zineryt?
It’s important to note that Zineryt isn’t a quick-fix, spot-zapping treatment, but is used over a longer period of time to provide noticeable improvements to your skin.
You will usually need to use this treatment for around 10 - 12 weeks for best results, but you will normally start to see the difference in your skin before your full course of treatment ends.
Make sure to use this acne treatment for the full length of time advised by your doctor, even if your skin clears up before then, as it will help you to get the most from this product and see improvement for longer.
Why is this treatment mixed by a pharmacist before it’s sent to me?
If Zineryt solution is prescribed for you, you may notice that it’s been mixed by your pharmacist before it’s given to you.
This is because the solution has a much shorter shelf life when it’s mixed together than the separate powder and solvent used to make this medication have on their own.
By mixing this medication together when you need it, our pharmacists ensure that your medication is not only ready to use right away but won’t go out of date within the time you need to use it.
What is acne?
Acne is a skin condition that can happen to anyone but is especially common in children and young adults.
Acne happens when the glands in the surface of your skin start to produce too much of an oil named sebum, which can clog your follicles, causing spots, whiteheads, blackheads, and more.
It’s caused by hormonal changes, like those that happen during puberty, pregnancy, or throughout your period.
When you have acne, your skin will produce too much oil or sebum, which then clogs your pores and causes breakouts.
When combined with this excess oil, the bacteria that live on your skin can get aggravated, causing redness and inflammation alongside the spots and this whole combination can be sore and irritating.
Acne can be mild, causing just a few spots and blackheads, but can range all the way to severe acne, which can cause large, painful papules, cysts, and nodules on top of everything else.
Although people think acne is all about breakouts of spots, there are a couple of other symptoms you may experience when you have acne, including oily skin, or skin that’s sore or hot to touch.
Acne usually appears on your face, chest, or back, and it can be tempting to squeeze the spots that appear there, but you should resist the temptation and use an acne treatment to help you manage your condition effectively and avoid scarring.
