Hi, does anyone used this stuff for acne? Well, I got some on ebay today so it isn't "prescribed" so I have no idea how to use it, the instructions aren't very clear. After mixing the two substances together am i meant to fit the cap thing onto the bottle with the blue part facing upwards :confused:? and how how much am i meant to put on? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks :smile:

Buying prescribed medicine over the internet? Clever.

LMAO @ Buying medicine off ebay. How much did you pay for it?

But yeah you just mix them together and shake it for a while, with the blue thing facing up. To use it you just apply it through the blue thing. I think it expires after a few weeks too.

Yeah they normally 1 or 2 weeks. I usually just 'As Directed by the Doctor'. But I'll check tomorrow just in case, because sometimes it's different.

Hah, you've been had mate. If you go to a GP, say you've got bad spots, they'll probably prescribe you it (mine did when i was 15). And, if you're in education, its free!

You should have gone to the doctors; it's one of they first things they'd prescribe to you. I'd never buy prescribed medicine, or in fact, any drug from the internet.

Zineryt didn't really work for me. Nor did it for my brother. If this is the case, I advise you to go to the doctors next time. You'll most likely get prescribed some oral anti-biotic, something which you should definitely not buy off the web!

It worked really well for my friend.

My sister used it for a while and IIRC, it contains antibiotics.
I suggest you go see your GP, not least so he can make sure you get a repeat prescription to have a complete course to ensure best results.
You could have had it for less, I think (even free depending on where you live or your age!) had you first seen your GP.

(Several other reasons too for seeing your GP first, of course. You may be allergic to something in the medication, you may be taking other medication that may not get on well with the new medication...
Prescription medications are prescription-only for good reasons :smile: )
i guess you now know how to apply it (as ppl above already told you)
it worked really well when i used it a few years ago, it kinda burns a bit though!
worked well for me although after 3 months my skin became resistant to it and so it stopped working.
Didn't work on me - made my spots worse and it SMELLS so bad.
worked for me but you should have got it from the docs for prescription price - or free if you're still doing a-levels
It didn't work for me. It dried my skin a little, but the spots kept on coming.

I'm on duac once daily now (from my doc), and will be going on dianette soon. Woop.

Go to your doctors. They can give it to you free there too (if you're under 19 and in full time education still).
