Product description
Common use
Nizoral Shampoo is primarily used for the treatment of dandruff (Pityriasis capitis). This shampoo helps control and prevent dandruff. It belongs to the azole antifungal class, specifically designed to inhibit the growth and spread of fungi on the scalp.
Dosage and direction
Wet your hair and scalp thoroughly with water. Apply a sufficient amount of Nizoral Shampoo to your scalp. Gently massage the shampoo into your scalp, working it into a lather. Make sure to cover the entire scalp area. Leave the shampoo on your scalp for 5 minutes. It allows the active ingredient, ketoconazole, to have sufficient contact time with the scalp. Rinse your hair and scalp thoroughly with water to remove all the shampoo.
