About Dandoff Soap
Dandoff Soap is used to treat fungal infections of the skin. Also, it is used to manage dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis. Fungal infection is a skin disease in which a fungus attacks the tissue and causes infection. Dandruff is a scalp condition characterised by dry, itchy, white flakes of skin on the scalp.
Dandoff Soap is a combination of two drugs, namely: Cetrimide (antiseptic) and Ketoconazole (antifungal). Cetrimide works by preventing the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Ketoconazole works by damaging the fungal cell membranes that are essential for their survival. Together, they help to treat fungal infections of the skin and also dandruff.
Dandoff Soap is for external use only. Use Dandoff Soap as advised by your doctor. Some people may experience skin irritation, dry skin, a burning sensation, or a skin rash. Most of these side effects of Dandoff Soap 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 allergic to Dandoff Soap 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 Dandoff Soap. Avoid scratching the scalp as it may worsen dandruff. Cover your head with a scarf or hat while going out.
