Nizoral Anti-Dandruff Shampoo 100ml

Nizoral anti-dandruff shampoo is a well-known medicated formula containing 2% ketoconazole, an antifungal ingredient that targets the underlying cause of scalp flaking rather than just masking the symptoms. Unlike ordinary cosmetic shampoos, it works against the Malassezia yeast commonly associated with dandruff and itching on the scalp.

This 100ml bottle offers a practical size for everyday home use or travel. It is considered a suitable option for people dealing with persistent dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis, and it can be incorporated into a regular scalp care routine to help maintain a cleaner, more balanced scalp over time.

Benefits

• Helps reduce dandruff linked to Malassezia yeast activity on the scalp.
• Helps calm itching, redness, and irritation associated with seborrheic dermatitis.
• Formulated to be gentle on the scalp without causing excessive dryness with regular use.
• Compact 100ml size, convenient for daily use or travel.

Key Ingredients

• Ketoconazole 2%, a topical antifungal agent that works by stopping the growth of the fungi responsible for dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis on the scalp.

How to Use

Wet the hair and scalp thoroughly with water, then apply a suitable amount of shampoo and work it into a lather. Leave it in contact with the scalp for about 3 to 5 minutes to allow the active ingredient to work, then rinse thoroughly. It is typically used twice weekly during the treatment period, with reduced frequency afterward for maintenance as needed.
