Customer Reviews of Nizoral A-D Shampoo - 4 oz
Customer Review: The only one that worked
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had dandruff and mild seborrhoeic dermatitis since childhood. It has never really bothered me, but I've occasionally attempted to treat it with OTC anti-dandruff shampoos. Nothing really worked, so I just decided it was something I would have to live with.
Several months ago, I decided to research the condition a bit more and discovered ketoconazole, which is the active ingredient in this shampoo. Essentially, the seborrhoeic dermatitis is a reaction to a yeast present on the scalp (a commensual present on everyone but provoking a reaction in only some individuals), and ketoconazole is an antifungal medication; logically, it can be used in treatment of the condition by reducing the population of the yeast. I'm a bit surprised that pyrithione zinc, tar, selenium sulfide, et al. didn't work, but my understanding is that this is the most potent antifungal available OTC for this purpose.
Enough theory; did it actually work? Yes. I applied this shampoo for about two weeks and both the dandruff and the scaling completely disappeared. It's my experience that I can apply it about once every two weeks to maintain the response; any less and the symptoms begin to return. The rest of the time, I can use my normal shampoo. That's easy enough; I'm quite satisfied at how well Nizoral works.
Description of Nizoral A-D Shampoo - 4 oz
Nizoral shampoo has been successfully used in the 2% strength as a prescription shampoo for dandruff causing conditions like seborrhea, as well as for the treatment of psoriasis for several years now. Now Nizoral shampoo is available in an OTC 1% strength, ideal for allowing individuals to take control of their treatment, potentially circumventing the need for some prescription items.Incorporating this product into a regimen using a variety of medicated shampoos as well as other prescription topicals works well at controlling these conditions. Remember, that seborrhea and psoriasis are chronic conditions and require therapy intermittently.
