Medicine Description octidan 200 ml
Octidan 200 ml Shampoo is a medication designed to address scalp conditions that contribute to hair loss. It combines several active ingredients: allantoin, which promotes skin healing and moisture retention; climbazole, an antifungal agent that helps manage dandruff and scalp flaking; piroctone olamine, which has antifungal properties and reduces scalp irritation; and salicylic acid, which aids in exfoliating the scalp to remove dead skin cells and excess oil. Together, these components work synergistically to create a healthier scalp environment, potentially reducing hair fall due to scalp-related issues and promoting overall hair health.
