Ketofly 2% Bottle Of 100ml Shampoo
Description
Ketofly Shampoo is a medicated shampoo specially designed to treat and prevent dandruff and a flaky scalp. It contains ketoconazole, a powerful antifungal medicine that works effectively against the fungus responsible for dandruff. Reducing fungal growth on the scalp helps alleviate symptoms such as itching, flaking, and irritation, making your scalp healthier and your hair more manageable.
The main action of Ketofly Shampoo is to target the fungal cell membrane. Ketoconazole binds to the cell membrane and alters its permeability, which stops the fungus from growing and multiplying. This helps control dandruff at its root cause rather than just masking the symptoms. With regular use, Ketofly Shampoo not only clears dandruff but also helps prevent it from returning.
You should use Ketofly Shampoo as advised by your doctor or dermatologist. Generally, it is applied to the wet scalp, lathered well, and left on for a few minutes before rinsing off. Using it consistently helps in achieving the best results. Avoid using more than the recommended amount, as overuse may irritate the scalp.
Some people may experience mild side effects, such as dryness, itching, or a burning sensation on the scalp, when using Ketofly Shampoo. These effects are usually temporary and disappear once the scalp adjusts to the treatment. However, if irritation becomes severe or persists, you should consult your doctor for advice.
Ketofly Shampoo is a convenient and effective way to treat dandruff and maintain scalp health. For best results, pair it with good hair care habits such as avoiding harsh hair products and keeping your scalp clean. By following your doctor’s advice and using the shampoo correctly, you can enjoy long-term relief from dandruff and improve your overall scalp condition.
