SCALPE Anti Dandruff Shampoo

SCALPE Anti Dandruff Shampoo is a popular and effective solution for treating dandruff and related scalp issues. Manufactured by Glenmark Pharmaceuticals, it’s widely recognized for its efficacy.

Key Features and Benefits:

• Effective Dandruff Treatment: SCALPE shampoos, particularly Scalpe Plus and Scalpe Pro, often contain active ingredients like Ketoconazole, Zinc Pyrithione (ZPTO), and Climbazole. These ingredients target the root cause of dandruff, which is often the Malassezia fungus. They work by inhibiting fungal growth, reducing inflammation, itching, and flaking.
• Reduces Itching and Flaking: Users frequently report significant relief from scalp itching and reduced flaking after using SCALPE.
• Prevents Recurrence: The formulation is designed not just to treat existing dandruff but also to prevent its recurrence.
• Hair Fall Reduction: By addressing dandruff, which can contribute to hair fall, SCALPE shampoos can indirectly help reduce hair loss caused by scalp conditions.
• Conditioning Base: Many SCALPE variants are formulated with a conditioning base to prevent dryness, leaving hair soft and manageable.
• Dermatologically Tested: Generally considered safe and effective for use.

Key Ingredients (Common in Scalpe Plus/Pro variants):

• Ketoconazole: An antifungal agent that effectively targets the Malassezia fungus. (More common in Scalpe Plus)
• Zinc Pyrithione (ZPTO): Another antifungal and antibacterial agent that helps control dandruff-causing microbes.
• Climbazole: Targets the Malassezia fungus and helps prevent its build-up.
• Piroctone Olamine: Known to improve hair shaft thickness and reduce hair fall due to breakage.

How to Use: The exact directions might vary slightly between specific SCALPE variants (e.g., Scalpe Plus vs. Scalpe Pro), so always refer to the product label. General usage instructions:

1. Wet hair and scalp thoroughly.
2. Apply an adequate amount of shampoo to create a good lather.
3. Gently massage the shampoo into your scalp for approximately 1-3 minutes.
4. Rinse thoroughly with warm water.
5. Some formulations might recommend a repeat application for an additional 3 minutes.
6. For initial treatment, it’s often recommended to use it once every 3 days for 4 weeks, followed by once weekly as maintenance therapy. Scalpe Pro is often marketed for daily use.

Possible Side Effects: SCALPE Anti Dandruff Shampoo is generally well-tolerated. However, some individuals might experience mild side effects, especially if used more frequently than recommended or if they have sensitive skin. These can include:

• Dryness of the scalp or hair
• Mild itching or burning sensation
• Skin irritation or redness
• In rare cases, hair loss (though it generally helps reduce hair loss caused by dandruff)

If you experience persistent or severe irritation, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.
