Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?

A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Erytop Gel. The brand name, manufacturer, inactive ingredients and price can differ, and so can release form, so a substitute is not automatically interchangeable.

All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.

Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.

Benefits of Erytop Gel

In Bacterial infection
Erytop treats the bacterial infection it was prescribed for by killing the bacteria or stopping them multiplying. Finishing the course makes sure the infection does not return.
In Gut infection
Erytop clears the bacteria or other organisms causing diarrhoea, abdominal pain and bloating, so the gut settles.
In Skin infection
Erytop treats infected skin and soft tissue, bringing down redness, swelling and pain.
In Dental infection
Erytop treats infections of the teeth and gums, easing the pain and swelling until your dentist can deal with the cause.

How Erytop Gel works

Clindamycin is a lincosamide antibiotic that reduces acne-causing bacteria (Cutibacterium acnes) on the skin and decreases inflammation. This helps reduce pimples and redness over time.

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

If you miss a dose of Erytop Gel, apply it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause vomiting, severe loose motions and nerve symptoms. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

  • Skin dryness
  • irritation
  • burning/stinging
  • redness
  • itching
  • peeling

Stop the medicine and get help at once 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.
