Zineryt is a topical antibiotic lotion used for treating acne. This medication can help to reduce redness and itching by killing the bacteria causing the infection. It contains Erythromycin and zinc as its two active ingredients.
Common reasons our customers use Zineryt Lotion:
- Acne treatment for mild to moderate acne: The active ingredients work together to target the bacteria associated with acne and help reduce inflammation.
- Bacterial infection control: The antibiotic erythromycin in Zineryt targets the bacteria Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes), which plays a role in the development of acne.
- Reducing inflammation: The zinc acetate in Zineryt has anti-inflammatory properties, which can help reduce redness and swelling associated with inflamed acne lesions.
- Topical and convenient application: Zineryt lotion is applied directly to the affected areas of the skin, providing localised treatment without affecting the rest of the body.
- Less irritation: Some individuals may find Zineryt to be less irritating compared to other topical acne treatments, making it suitable for those with sensitive skin.
- Maintenance therapy: After successfully treating active acne, some people might continue using Zineryt as a maintenance therapy to prevent new breakouts.

Frequently Asked Questions about Zineryt Lotion
Can Zineryt be used during pregnancy?
No, Zineryt should not be used during pregnancy. If you are pregnant or planning on becoming pregnant, you should speak to your doctor before using any acne treatments.
Erythromycin, the main ingredient in Zineryt, can pass into breast milk and may cause side effects in a nursing baby. For this reason, Zineryt should not be used by women who are breastfeeding.
What are the ingredients in Zineryt?
The main ingredient in Zineryt is erythromycin, which is an antibiotic. Antibiotics work by killing the bacteria that cause acne, and erythromycin is a particularly effective one.
Zineryt also contains alcohol and propylene glycol. These ingredients help to keep the erythromycin in a liquid form, and they also help it to penetrate the skin more effectively.

Yes, Zineryt can treat acne. It is a particularly effective treatment for inflammatory acne, which is the most common type. Zineryt can also help to prevent new acne breakouts from occurring.
If you have severe acne, you may need a higher concentration of erythromycin than what is found in Zineryt. In this case, your doctor may prescribe you a different medication.
Is Zineryt prescription only?
Zineryt is a Prescription only medicine, you will need a prescription from your GP to be able to buy it. You can also buy Zineryt online from a private healthcare provider, but you will still need a prescription in order to do so.
