Danclean Shampoo

Danclean Shampoo contains Zinc Pyrithione (1%w/v) + Ciclopirox (1%w/v) and is used for this medicine is used. Prescription required.

This medicine is used in the treatment of hair loss, dandruff, scalp conditions, fungal skin infection, ringworm, athlete's foot and nail fungal infection.

This medicine combines 2 active ingredients: Zinc Pyrithione and Ciclopirox. Zinc Pyrithione acts on the scalp and hair follicles to slow hair loss and control flaking. Ciclopirox kills the fungus on the skin by breaking down the membrane that holds its cells together.

Clean and dry the affected area, then apply a thin layer and rub it in gently. Wash your hands before and after use, unless your hands are the area being treated. This is for use on the skin only — do not swallow it. Follow the dose and the duration written on your prescription.

Topical minoxidil causes a burst of shedding in the first two to eight weeks. This is the old hair making way for new — it is expected, not a failure. Results take three to six months, and stop when you stop. This is a continuing treatment, not a cure. Finasteride must not be handled or taken by anyone who is pregnant or could become pregnant — it causes birth defects. Do not let a pregnant person handle broken or crushed tablets. Apply topical treatments to a dry scalp, not to hair, and wash your hands afterwards. Tell your doctor about any chest pain, dizziness, rapid heartbeat or sudden weight gain with minoxidil. Keep applying for the full period your doctor stated, usually two to four weeks, and for a week or two after the rash has cleared. Stopping when it looks better is why ringworm keeps coming back. Apply a little beyond the visible edge of the patch — the fungus extends further than the redness. Do not use a combination cream containing a steroid on a fungal infection unless a doctor has specifically prescribed it. The steroid calms the redness while the fungus spreads underneath. See a doctor if the rash covers a large area, involves the scalp or nails, or has not improved in two weeks — these usually need tablets as well.

Avoid applying other scalp products at the same time of day unless advised. No significant interactions are expected from preparations used on the skin.

Store below 30°C, away from direct sunlight. Close the cap tightly after each use. Keep out of the reach of children.
