Product Description

Ketafung-SA Medicated Shampoo is a therapeutic anti-dandruff shampoo specially formulated for the management of dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis and scalp scaling. The shampoo combines Ketoconazole IP 2% w/v with Salicylic Acid IP 2% w/v, providing dual-action care to control fungal growth while gently removing thick scalp scales and flakes.

Ketoconazole is a broad-spectrum antifungal agent widely used in the treatment of dandruff associated with Malassezia yeast. It helps reduce fungal growth responsible for persistent dandruff, itching and scalp irritation. Salicylic Acid complements this action by acting as a keratolytic agent that softens and loosens accumulated scalp scales, allowing them to be washed away more effectively while improving penetration of the antifungal ingredient.

According to the information visible on the product, Ketafung-SA is indicated for itching and flaking associated with dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis and psoriasis of the scalp. The shampoo helps cleanse the scalp, reduce visible flakes, improve scalp comfort and support healthier scalp hygiene with regular use.

To use, wet the hair and scalp thoroughly before applying an adequate quantity of Ketafung-SA Shampoo. Massage gently into the scalp until a rich lather develops. Leave the shampoo on the scalp for approximately 3 minutes before rinsing thoroughly with clean water. Use as directed by your physician for optimal results.

Regular use may help reduce dandruff recurrence, minimize scalp scaling and maintain a healthier scalp environment. Avoid contact with the eyes. If accidental contact occurs, rinse immediately with plenty of water. Store the product in a cool place protected from heat and light, and always keep the bottle tightly closed after use.

Ketafung-SA is intended for external use only and should be used according to medical advice, especially in individuals with persistent scalp disorders.
