Calminox Scalp Lotion

Calminox Scalp Lotion contains Ketoconazole (2%). Prescription required.

Scalp itching and irritation, dandruff/seborrheic dermatitis, mild inflammatory scalp conditions (as directed by a dermatologist).

Scalp lotions for dandruff/itch typically work by reducing fungal overgrowth on the scalp and calming inflammation, thereby decreasing scaling and itching. Exact mechanism depends on the active ingredients in the formulation.

For external use only. Apply a thin layer to the affected scalp area and gently massage; leave on as advised. Use the frequency and duration recommended by your doctor; avoid contact with eyes and broken skin. Wash hands after application.

Burning or stinging at application site, itching, redness, dryness, irritation, allergic rash

Do not use if you are allergic to any ingredients. Avoid eyes, mouth and mucous membranes; rinse with plenty of water if contact occurs. Stop use and seek medical advice if severe irritation, swelling, blistering or worsening occurs. Use in children, pregnancy or breastfeeding only on medical advice. If this product contains steroids/antifungals/keratolytics, prolonged or excessive use may increase side effects—follow the label/doctor’s directions.

If the lotion contains corticosteroids, avoid using with other potent topical steroids on the same area unless advised. If it contains salicylic acid/keratolytics, concurrent use with other irritant scalp products (retinoids, strong acids, alcohol-based solutions) may increase irritation. Exact interactions depend on composition.

Store below 25°C in a cool, dry place away from direct light and heat. Keep the bottle tightly closed and out of reach of children.
