KZS Shampoo 100 ml

KZS Shampoo contains the active ingredient ketoconazole, which is an antifungal agent. It works by preventing the growth of Malassezia yeast, the primary cause of several scalp conditions, effectively treating the underlying infection rather than just the symptoms. 

Benefits of KZS Shampoo:

Ø  Treats Dandruff (Pityriasis capitis): Effectively eliminates the flaking and itching associated with common dandruff.

Ø  Manages Seborrheic Dermatitis: Helps control the symptoms of this condition, including inflammation, scaling, and redness on the scalp.

Ø  Fights Fungal Infections: Indicated for other localized fungal infections of the skin, such as pityriasis versicolor.

Ø  Prophylactic Use: Can be used to prevent the recurrence of these infections with regular use. 

Ingredients of KZS Shampoo:

Each ml of KZS Shampoo typically contains 20 mg of ketoconazole (2% w/w) as the active ingredient.
