Medicine Description ketoral-plus 125 ml
Ketoral Plus 125 ml Shampoo is a medication that combines ketoconazole, panthenol, and piroctone olamine to target fungal infections of the scalp. Ketoconazole is an antifungal agent that disrupts the synthesis of ergosterol, a vital component of fungal cell membranes, leading to cell lysis and death of the fungi responsible for dandruff. Piroctone olamine also exhibits antifungal properties and helps reduce the presence of Malassezia, a yeast that contributes to dandruff. Panthenol acts as a moisturizing agent, promoting hair hydration and enhancing its overall appearance. This combination effectively alleviates the symptoms of dandruff while nourishing the scalp and hair.
