Pharmacist advice for use

During the initial phase, use the shampoo three times per week for two weeks. Apply to wet hair and scalp, massage gently to create a lather and rinse.

Apply the shampoo a second time, massage gently into the scalp and leave for two to three minutes. Rinse hair and scalp thoroughly. To maintain results, use the shampoo once weekly over the following eight weeks or according to scalp needs.

On days between treatment washes, avoid frequently combining several intensive shampoos. With dry dandruff, regular gentle care is more important than aggressive scratching or repeatedly using strong cleansing products.

Seek dermatological advice if dandruff, itching or redness is very intense, if crusting, sores, painful changes, greasy yellow deposits or patchy hair loss occur. Avoid contact with the eyes. In case of contact, rinse immediately with water.

Education and related care

Dry dandruff differs from oily dandruff. With dry dandruff, flakes are usually finer, whitish and easier to shed from the scalp, while the skin may feel dry or tight. With oily dandruff, flakes may be larger, yellowish, oilier and more firmly attached to the scalp.

For a more effective routine, wash hair regularly with a suitable shampoo, avoid very hot water, harsh scalp rubbing and frequent switching between several active products without a clear care plan.
