About Zoya Soap

Zoya Soap belongs to the class of antifungal agents. Soap is used to treat fungal infections of the skin. The lotion is used to treat dandruff. Fungal infection is a skin disease in which a fungus attacks the tissue and causes infection. Dandruff is a scalp condition characterized by dry, itchy, white flakes of skin on the scalp. 

Zoya 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.

Zoya Soap is for external use only. Use Zoya Soap as advised by your doctor. Some people may experience skin irritation, dry skin, burning sensation, or skin rash. Most of these side effects of Zoya 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 Zoya 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 Zoya Soap. Avoid scratching the scalp as it may worsen dandruff. Cover your head with a scarf or hat while going out. You are recommended to drink plenty of water as hydrating the body may reduce the number of flakes on the scalp, thus decreasing the appearance of dandruff.
