How Elketo Z+ Shampoo 100ml Works?
Elketo Z+ Shampoo 100ml contains the following components:

It disrupts the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, exerting its therapeutic effect.
- Zinc Pyrithione (1%): Zinc Pyrithione inhibits membrane transport and reduces membrane electrical potential, leading to a depolarising blockade within fungal cells. It also disrupts cellular function and has a fungistatic effect.
