Ketosulf Shampoo is used to treat dandruff and seborrhoeic dermatitis of the scalp, which cause flaking, itching and redness. It is a single-ingredient medicine containing ketoconazole 2%, and belongs to a class of medicines called imidazole antifungals.
This medicine works by damaging the cell membrane of the Malassezia yeast that lives on the scalp, which stops the yeast growing and reduces the flaking, itching and redness it causes. Apply the shampoo to wet hair and massage it gently into the scalp so that it spreads evenly. Leave it on for the time your doctor advises, then rinse thoroughly. Use it as directed by your doctor.
Avoid using other harsh shampoos or scalp treatments alongside this one unless your doctor advises it, as this may increase scalp irritation. Avoid contact with your eyes.
Consult your doctor before use if you have open wounds, severe scalp sores or any other skin conditions, if you use other medicines on your scalp, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Contact your doctor if you notice increasing redness, swelling or irritation of the scalp.
