Ketoscalp Shampoo from Leeford is a medicated topical formulation designed for the effective management of fungal infections affecting the scalp. It contains Ketoconazole 2% w/v, a broad-spectrum antifungal agent that inhibits the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, thereby disrupting fungal growth and replication. Additionally, the shampoo includes Zinc Pyrithione 1% w/v, known for its antifungal and antibacterial properties, which help reduce scalp flaking, itching, and inflammation commonly associated with seborrheic dermatitis and dandruff. Ketoscalp Shampoo is indicated for the treatment of conditions such as tinea capitis, seborrheic dermatitis, and dandruff caused by Malassezia species and other susceptible fungi. The dual-action formulation not only targets fungal pathogens but also helps restore the scalp’s natural balance, promoting healthier skin and hair. For optimal results, it is recommended to apply the shampoo to wet hair, massage gently into the scalp, leave for 3-5 minutes, and rinse thoroughly. Regular use as directed by a healthcare professional can significantly reduce symptoms and prevent recurrence. Ketoscalp Shampoo is generally well tolerated; however, patients should avoid contact with eyes and discontinue use if irritation occurs.
