Description
Ketoconazole 2% w/v + ZPTO 1% w/v Shampoo is a medicated antifungal shampoo used to treat dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, and fungal scalp infections. Ketoconazole is an antifungal agent that targets and eliminates the fungus responsible for dandruff, while Zinc Pyrithione (ZPTO) has antibacterial and antifungal properties, helping to control scalp irritation, flaking, and itching.
