About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Kitnor Shampoo is a medicated topical formulation containing Ketoconazole 2% w/v and Zinc Pyrithione 1% w/v, designed for the treatment and management of various scalp conditions. Ketoconazole, a broad-spectrum antifungal agent, effectively targets dermatophytes, yeasts, and Malassezia species, which are commonly implicated in dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, and pityriasis versicolor. Zinc Pyrithione exhibits antibacterial and antifungal properties, contributing to the reduction of scalp inflammation, scaling, and itching. The synergistic action of these active ingredients helps restore the natural balance of the scalp microbiota, alleviating symptoms and preventing recurrence. Kitnor Shampoo is indicated for use in adults and adolescents for the treatment of dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis of the scalp. It is typically applied 2-3 times weekly, with the shampoo left on the scalp for several minutes before rinsing to ensure optimal efficacy. Patients should avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. In case of irritation or hypersensitivity, use should be discontinued and medical advice sought. Kitnor Shampoo is a valuable therapeutic option for managing chronic scalp conditions, improving patient comfort and quality of life through effective antifungal and anti-inflammatory activity.
