Product Introduction

Avynzia Shampoo 200ml contains coal tar as its active component. This medication is used to treat scalp psoriasis (raised, scaly, red patches on the scalp, sometimes leading to temporary hair loss and itchiness), seborrheic dermatitis (inflammatory skin condition with flaky, yellowish scales on oily areas like the scalp, face, and chest, often linked to yeast overgrowth), and dandruff. It is also used in treating pityriasis rosea, a common skin condition that causes a salmon-coloured rash on the body's trunk. It helps in managing tinea capitis, which is a fungal infection of the scalp that can cause hair loss, scaling, and inflammation.

Do not use Avynzia Shampoo 200ml if you have a known allergy to coal tar or any other ingredient in the formulation. This medication can irritate broken or irritated skin. If you have any cuts, scrapes, or sores on your scalp, use it only once the skin has healed. Do not use if you have an active scalp infection such as ringworm or impetigo, as fungi or bacteria cause these infections and Avynzia Shampoo 200ml is ineffective against them.

This medication is generally safe for use in older adults. Avynzia Shampoo 200ml is not recommended for children under 6 years of age.
