Uses
Ketocip 1% Shampoo (Ketoconazole shampoo) is commonly advertised as a dandruff treatment, with OTC brands like Nizoral available in supermarkets or online for purchase. Dry scalp causes some dandruff, while other dandruff is actually seborrheic dermatitis. Seborrheic dermatitis may be associated with an overgrowth of Malassezia Trusted Source, a yeast fungus that’s naturally present on your skin. Ketoconazole can help treat dandruff by reducing the fungus and inflammation.
