How It Works

Dandruff is often caused by an overgrowth of a naturally occurring fungus on the scalp called Malassezia. Ketoconazole works by disrupting the outer membrane of this fungus, stopping it from growing and spreading. This helps to reduce flaking, itching, and scalp irritation.

⸻

Directions for Use

For treating dandruff, wet your hair and apply the shampoo to the scalp. Lather, leave for 3–5 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. Use twice a week for 2–4 weeks. For preventing dandruff, use once every 1–2 weeks. This product is suitable for adults and children aged 12 years and over. Always read the patient information leaflet before use. If you are unsure about the correct dose, speak to your PillSorted pharmacist.

Interactions

As Nizoral Anti-Dandruff Shampoo is applied to the scalp and not taken by mouth, significant drug interactions are unlikely when used as directed. However, you should avoid using it at the same time as other medicated scalp products unless advised by a healthcare professional. Tell your PillSorted pharmacist or doctor about all medicines you are currently taking, including herbal remedies and supplements.

⸻

The absorption of ketoconazole through the skin when used as a shampoo is very low. However, as a precaution, it is advisable to seek guidance before use. Speak to your doctor or PillSorted pharmacist before use if you are pregnant, trying to conceive, or breastfeeding.

⸻

There is no known interaction between Nizoral Anti-Dandruff Shampoo and alcohol. As this product is applied topically to the scalp and not ingested, alcohol consumption does not affect how it works.
