Medicinal Benefits

Salisia KT Shampoo, 75 ml is primarily used to treat dandruff and dermatitis (scaly patches and red skin on the scalp). Salisia KT Shampoo, 75 ml is composed of two medicines: Ketoconazole (antifungal) and salicylic acid (keratoplastic). Ketoconazole is an antifungal agent that works by preventing the growth of dandruff-causing fungi by avoiding them from forming their own protective covering. Salicylic acid belongs to a class of drugs known as keratoplastic (thickens the keratin layers). It works by removing dead cells from the skin’s top layer and slowing down skin cell's growth. This effect decreases scaling and dryness, thus relieving itching and cracking related to dandruff.
