Ketoconazole, Piroctone Olamine

Ketoconazole 2% Shampoo is a topical antifungal medication specifically designed to treat skin and scalp infections caused by fungi. It works by penetrating the fungal cell wall, inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component in the cell wall’s structure, ultimately killing the fungus and alleviating the associated symptoms.
The primary ingredient, Ketoconazole, is a potent antifungal agent widely used in dermatology and infectious disease therapy. It is effective in managing various types of fungal infections, such as tinea infections (athlete’s foot, jock itch, ringworm) and seborrheic dermatitis. In addition to its antifungal properties, Ketoconazole 2% Shampoo also contains Piroctone Olamine, an effective antibacterial and antifungal agent, which further strengthens its therapeutic power.

Formulated with a unique combination of antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties, this shampoo acts on multiple fronts. First, Piroctone Olamine targets the bacteria and yeast that contribute to dandruff. Second, its anti-inflammatory effects soothe the scalp and help alleviate redness and itching associated with seborrheic dermatitis.
