Nizoral 2% Shampoo - Therapeutic Antifungal & Scalp Treatment

About the Product
Nizoral 2% Shampoo is a world-renowned medicinal treatment specifically formulated to treat and prevent scalp conditions caused by fungal infections. Its active ingredient, Ketoconazole, is a powerful antifungal that targets the root cause of severe dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis by eliminating Malassezia (the yeast-like fungus naturally found on the scalp that can grow out of control). Unlike regular anti-dandruff shampoos that simply wash away flakes, Nizoral treats the underlying infection, significantly reducing inflammation, persistent itching, and the heavy scaling associated with stubborn scalp issues. It is also frequently used to treat Tinea (Pityriasis) Versicolor, a fungal infection that causes discolored patches on the skin.

Leave the lather on your scalp for 3 to 5 minutes—this contact time is essential for the active ingredient to penetrate and treat the infection. Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water.
