Product Introduction
Bluecap Shampoo 150ml contains Zinc pyrithione and Menthol as active ingredients. It is indicated for the treatment of severe dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis. Seborrheic dermatitis is a common skin condition characterised by redness, itching, and flaking, typically affecting the scalp, face, and other oily body areas. Zinc pyrithione is an antifungal agent that acts against Malassezia, the fungus responsible for dandruff. Menthol functions as a cooling agent that relieves itching and scalp irritation. The formulation may improve hair appearance by promoting a healthier and shinier appearance. It may help reduce hair loss. Bluecap Shampoo 150ml may help prevent dandruff recurrence.
Do not use this product if you have a known allergy to any component. If you have other skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis, consult your doctor before use. Avoid application to broken or irritated skin, as absorption through broken skin may occur and could produce adverse effects. Bluecap Shampoo 150ml may irritate such conditions. This product is not recommended for children under 12 years of age, as safety and efficacy have not been established in this age group.
