Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?
A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Scalpe + Shampoo. The medicine inside is the same — the brand name, manufacturer and price are what differ.
All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.
Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.
Composition of Scalpe + Shampoo
Scalpe + Shampoo contains Ketoconazole 2% w/v (medicated shampoo). It belongs to the Imidazole antifungal (topical) class of medicines.
Uses of Scalpe + Shampoo
- Dandruff (pityriasis capitis)
- seborrhoeic dermatitis of scalp
- fungal-associated scalp scaling and itching
Key benefits
- Reduces dandruff and flaking
- Relieves scalp itching
- Helps control seborrhoeic dermatitis
- Decreases fungal load on scalp
How Scalpe + Shampoo works
Ketoconazole is an antifungal that inhibits fungal cell membrane (ergosterol) synthesis, reducing the growth of Malassezia species linked with dandruff and seborrhoeic dermatitis. This helps decrease flaking, scaling, redness and itching of the scalp.
How to take Scalpe + Shampoo
For external use only. Wet hair and scalp, apply sufficient shampoo and massage into scalp to form lather; leave on for about 3–5 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. Typically use 2 times a week for 2–4 weeks, then once weekly or as advised by a doctor for maintenance. Avoid contact with eyes; if contact occurs, rinse with water.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
Missed dose and overdose
If you miss a dose
Apply it as soon as you remember. If it is nearly time for the next application, skip the missed one — applying extra does not make up for it.
If you take too much
An overdose of this medicine is unlikely from skin use; swallowing the preparation may cause stomach upset. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

- redness
- hair texture changes
- hair fall (rare)
