Clindac A 1% Bottle Of 100ml Mist Spray

Clindac A Mist Spray is a topical acne treatment. It contains clindamycin as its active ingredient, an antibiotic that works by inhibiting the growth of bacteria responsible for acne. This helps to reduce redness, swelling, and the number of pimples over time, giving you clearer skin with regular use.

This spray is meant only for external application and should be used exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not apply it to broken, cut, or sunburned skin. Before using the spray, gently clean and dry the affected area to remove dirt and excess oil.

Then apply a thin layer as directed. Avoid using more than the recommended amount, as it will not make your acne heal faster but may increase the risk of irritation. While using Clindac A Mist Spray, avoid applying heavy makeup or oily skin products, as they can block pores and worsen acne.

It is also advisable not to pop or squeeze pimples, as this can spread bacteria and pus, leading to more acne and potential scarring. If you experience dryness, mild itching, or peeling, these are usually temporary and may go away as your skin adjusts to the medicine. However, if irritation persists or your acne worsens, inform your doctor immediately.

Continue using the medicine for the full duration prescribed, even if your skin improves earlier, to prevent the acne from returning.
