Nozal Zpto Soap 75gm Description
Nozal Zpto Soap is an antifungal medication. It is mainly used for the management of fungal infections of the skin such as seborrheic dermatitis (dry, flaky skin on the face, scalp, chest, upper back
and ears), which is a type of dandruff that can cause an itchy rash with dry, flaky scales on the skin. This condition is most commonly seen on the scalp, face, back and upper chest. Nozal Zpto Soap contains ketoconazole, and Zinc pyrithione is its main ingredient. The fungi have cell membranes that are essential for their survival. They protect the fungi from unwanted substances and stop the leakage of their contents. The mode of action of Nozal Zpto Soap is to cause holes in the cell membranes of the fungus and kill them. It results in slowing the growth of dandruff on the scalp. Ask your doctor if you are using any products on the skin. Follow your doctor’s directions for using Nozal Zpto Soap. It is for use on the skin and scalp only. Itching, redness, irritation or burning at the place of use are some of the most common side effects of Nozal Zpto Soap. These side effects do not need any medical treatment and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist for a long time or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Mode of Action of Nozal Zpto Soap 75gm
How Does It Work?
Nozal Zpto Soap is a combination of two antifungal drugs, namely Ketoconazole and Pyrithione zinc.
Ketoconazole works directly on the fungi. The cell membranes are needed for the survival of the fungi as they stop the entry of unwanted substances into the cells and prevent the cell contents from leaking. This medicine creates holes in the fungal cell membranes and kills them. It clears fungal infection and provides relief from symptoms such as cracking, burning, scaling and itching of the skin caused due to the infection.
Pyrithione Zinc works by mediating the action of increasing the levels of copper inside the cell and damaging iron-sulfur clusters of proteins essential for fungal metabolism and growth....
