About 8X-KT Shampoo

8X-KT Shampoo is primarily used to prevent fungal infections of the skin, like seborrheic dermatitis. Seborrheic dermatitis is a type of dandruff that causes an itchy rash with dry, flaky scales on the skin that contains oil glands, such as the scalp, face, back, and upper chest.

8X-KT Shampoo contains ketoconazole and zinc pyrithione. It works by causing holes in the fungal cell membrane, which is essential for their survival, as it prevents the entry of unwanted substances into the cells and stops the leakage of cell contents.

Some people may experience itching, redness, irritation or a burning sensation at the application site. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are known to be allergic to 8X-KT Shampoo or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or a nursing mother, it is advised to consult a doctor before using 8X-KT Shampoo. If you are using any steroidal cream, lotion, or ointment, inform your doctor before using 8X-KT Shampoo. Do not swallow 8X-KT Shampoo. In case of accidental swallowing, contact a nearby poison control centre or consult a doctor immediately.

Key Benefits

It contains ketoconazole and zinc pyrithione. Ketoconazole is an antifungal agent which works by disrupting fungal cell membranes to stop their growth and spread.
Zinc pyrithione has broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties that help in regulating sebum production, reducing excess oil that contributes to dandruff.
Together, 8X-KT Shampoo helps eliminate dandruff, soothe scalp irritation, and restore scalp health.

Ketoconazole is an antifungal agent that disrupts the fungal cell membrane, preventing the growth of dandruff-causing fungi, while zinc pyrithione is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial that inhibits fungal and bacterial growth, reducing scalp irritation and flaking. Their combined action helps control scalp infections, reduce inflammation, and restore scalp health.
