How Clinxa A Gel works

Acne gels typically work by reducing acne-causing bacteria on the skin and decreasing inflammation in the hair follicles. Some formulations also help unclog pores and reduce comedones, thereby preventing new pimples.

How to take Clinxa A Gel

For external use only. Clean and dry the affected area, then apply a thin layer to the acne-affected skin as advised by a doctor (often once daily or as directed). Avoid contact with eyes, mouth, inside the nose, and broken/irritated skin; wash hands after application.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take the missed dose of Clinxa A as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed one and carry on with the usual schedule. Do not take two doses together to make up for a missed dose.

If you take too much

Taking more Clinxa A than prescribed can be harmful. If you suspect an overdose, contact a doctor or go to the nearest emergency department at once, and carry the pack or strip with you. In India the emergency number is 112.

Stop the medicine and seek help immediately for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
