Nizoral Anti-Dandruff Shampoo 2% 60mL (S2)
Nizoral Anti-Dandruff Shampoo 2% 60mL is a medicated shampoo formulated to treat and control dandruff, seborrhoeic dermatitis, and related scalp conditions. Each application contains ketoconazole 2% w/w, a broad-spectrum antifungal agent that targets the root cause of dandruff by eliminating the yeast (Malassezia) that contributes to flaking, scaling, and itching.
This pharmacy-only (S2) medicine not only controls dandruff but also soothes scalp irritation, reduces flaking, and restores scalp health. With regular use, it helps prevent recurrence, leaving hair clean and manageable.
The 60mL bottle is compact and convenient, suitable for short-term treatment cycles as directed.
