Product introduction

Clin 3 Gel is only meant for external use and should be used as advised by your doctor. A thin layer of the medicine should be applied only to the affected areas of the skin with clean and dry hands. Wash your hands before and after applying the medicine. It may take several days to weeks for your symptoms to improve, but you should keep using this medicine regularly. The course of the treatment should be completed to ensure better efficacy of the medicine. If your condition does not improve or gets worse, you should talk to your doctor.

Common side effects of Clin 3 Gel include dry skin, erythema, and skin burning. These side effects are usually mild and self-limiting. Most of these side effects can be prevented by using a skin moisturizer and drinking plenty of water. Serious side effects are rare. Consult the doctor if you experience any allergic reaction (rashes, itching, swelling, shortness of breath, etc.).

Before using this medicine, it is important to tell your doctor if you are taking or have recently taken any other medicines for the same condition. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should use this medicine with proper consultation and caution. If you are known to be allergic to the medicine, you must refrain from using this medicine and consult your doctor. During the treatment, do not touch, prick, or scratch the infected skin areas, as this may worsen or spread the acne. Avoid unnecessary sun exposure and use sunscreen before stepping out in the sun. It is also advised not to receive any cosmetic procedures without asking your doctor.

Uses of Clin Gel

Treatment of Acne

Benefits of Clin Gel

Treatment of Acne
Clin 3 Gel is a combination medicine that helps treat acne (commonly called pimples) by reducing the production of excessive oil in the skin that causes acne. This also kills acne-causing bacteria and prevents spots or pimples from appearing. It usually takes a few weeks to have a noticeable effect so keep using it even if it appears not to be working. Sometimes acne may get worse before it gets better, however, with proper use, your skin will get clearer. The earlier you start using it, the less likely you are to get scars. This medicine will help improve your mood and uplift your confidence as your skin becomes acne-free.

Side effects of Clin Gel

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

How to use Clin Gel

This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Clean and dry the affected area and apply the gel. Wash your hands after applying, unless hands are the affected area.

How Clin Gel works

Clin 3 Gel is a combination of two medicines: Clindamycin and Nicotinamide, which treat pimples (acne). Clindamycin is an antibiotic that works by penetrating the skin and killing acne-causing bacteria. Nicotinamide is a form of vitamin B. It exerts anti-inflammatory effects when applied to the skin and reduces swelling, redness, and tenderness associated with acne.
