Ketomix Shampoo 100 ml

Ketomix Shampoo is a medicated shampoo primarily used to treat and manage common fungal infections affecting the scalp. It contains an active antifungal agent (likely ketoconazole) that targets the root cause of conditions like dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis, which are caused by an overgrowth of yeast on the skin or scalp. 

Benefits of Ketomix Shampoo:

Ø  Treats Dandruff and Seborrheic Dermatitis: Effectively manages flaking, scaling, and itching associated with these conditions.

Ø  Antifungal Action: Kills the underlying fungus or yeast causing the infection by disrupting their cell membranes.

Ø  Symptom Relief: Provides relief from common symptoms like itching, redness, and inflammation.

Ø  Prevents Recurrence: Regular use, as directed, helps prevent the return of fungal conditions. 

Ingredients of Ketomix Shampoo:

The primary active ingredient is ketoconazole, typically in a 1% or 2% concentration, depending on whether it is an over-the-counter or prescription strength product. 

Ø  Active Ingredient: Ketoconazole (e.g., 20 mg per ml).

Ø  Other Ingredients: The shampoo base includes various excipients for lathering, conditioning, and preservation. Some formulations may also include other ingredients like zinc pyrithione for enhanced effect. A full list of inactive ingredients would be on the product label. 

Usage Instructions of Ketomix Shampoo:

For external use only. Specific instructions may vary by product concentration and the condition being treated, but generally: 

Ø  Frequency: Typically used less frequently than regular shampoo. For initial treatment, it might be used daily for a short period (e.g., 3-5 days), then tapered down to once or twice a week for maintenance.

Ø  Application:

• Wet the hair and scalp thoroughly.
• Apply a sufficient amount of shampoo to cover the affected areas and surrounding skin to produce a lather.
• Gently massage into the scalp.
• Leave the shampoo on the scalp for 3 to 5 minutes.
• Rinse thoroughly with water.
• For long hair, a regular, milder shampoo can be used on the hair strands, while the medicated shampoo focuses on the scalp. 

Side Effects of Ketomix Shampoo:

Common side effects are usually mild and localised: 

Ø  Skin irritation, itching, or stinging at the application site.

Ø  Pimple-like bumps on the scalp.

Ø  Changes in hair texture.

Ø  Oiliness or dryness of hair and scalp.

Ø  Hair discoloration or hair loss (rare).
