Key Ingredients

Salicylic Acid 3%

The active ingredient in Nizoral Psoriasis Prone Shampoo is 3% salicylic acid. Salicylic acid helps the outer layer of skin to shed and acts as a scale lifter, helping to soften and remove the scales associated with scalp psoriasis.

Tea Tree Oil

Tea tree oil is included as part of Nizoral's targeted scalp-care formula.

Green Tea Extract

The formula also contains green tea extract alongside its active ingredient and other supporting ingredients.

Vitamins E, C & B5

Nizoral Psoriasis Shampoo contains vitamins E and C plus vitamin B5 (panthenol) as part of the formulation.

How to Get the Best Results

Consistency can be important when caring for a psoriasis-prone scalp. Use the shampoo according to the recommended directions rather than increasing the frequency unnecessarily.

Avoid aggressively scratching, picking or trying to manually remove scales from the scalp, as this may increase irritation. Allow the salicylic acid formula to help soften and lift scales as intended.

If you use additional haircare products, consider keeping your overall routine gentle and avoid products that you find aggravate your scalp.

Inish Pharmacy Expert Advice

Scalp psoriasis and dandruff can look similar because both can cause visible flakes and an uncomfortable scalp, but they are different conditions and may require different products. Nizoral Psoriasis Prone Shampoo contains salicylic acid, while Nizoral's Anti-Dandruff Shampoo contains ketoconazole.

When using a medicated scalp shampoo, follow the recommended directions consistently and avoid scratching or forcibly removing scales. If your scalp becomes increasingly irritated or your symptoms aren't improving, seek advice from a pharmacist, GP or dermatologist.

Always check the directions and ingredients on your individual product packaging before use, particularly if you have allergies or sensitivities.
