I have an itchy scalp. Is it safe to use Apifil Lotion on my scalp and hair?
Apifil Lotion is a moisturising, skin barrier repair product primarily used for dry skin conditions such as eczema and dermatitis, and is generally safe to use on the scalp. It may help if your scalp is dry or irritated, but it is not specifically formulated for hair or scalp conditions such as dandruff or fungal infections. It may feel slightly heavy or greasy on the hair and could cause build-up in some people. If your scalp is just dry, you may use a small amount and see how your scalp responds. However, if your symptoms persist or worsen, or are accompanied by flakes or signs of infection, it is advisable to consult a doctor for a more appropriate scalp-specific treatment.
