Ketocia Shampoo is a scientifically formulated medicated shampoo designed to treat scalp and hair conditions associated with fungal infections, dandruff, and seborrheic dermatitis. With a dual-action formula that combines Ketoconazole 2% and Zinc Pyrithione 1%, this shampoo not only eliminates harmful fungi and yeast but also restores scalp health, reduces irritation, and prevents recurrence of infections.
The scalp is highly susceptible to fungal overgrowth, particularly Malassezia species, which is the leading cause of dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis. The combination of Ketoconazole and Zinc Pyrithione in Ketocia Shampoo offers a powerful antifungal and antibacterial effect while being gentle enough for regular therapeutic use.
Ketoconazole is a broad-spectrum antifungal medication belonging to the imidazole class. It acts by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a vital component of fungal cell membranes, leading to disruption of cell wall integrity and eventual cell death. At a 2% concentration, Ketoconazole is clinically proven to:
Effectively treat fungal infections of the scalp
Reduce overgrowth of Malassezia furfur, the primary organism responsible for dandruff
Control seborrheic dermatitis symptoms, including itching, redness, and scaling
Provide long-lasting relief and prevent recurrence with continued use
Zinc Pyrithione is a potent antifungal and antibacterial ingredient widely used in medicated shampoos. It is effective against both fungal and bacterial scalp infections, offering broad protection. Its mechanism of action includes:
Disrupting fungal and bacterial metabolism
Reducing excessive oiliness on the scalp, which encourages fungal overgrowth
Decreasing scaling and flaking by slowing down the production of skin cells
Offering anti-inflammatory benefits that soothe irritation
The inclusion of Zinc Pyrithione 1% complements the antifungal effects of Ketoconazole, making Ketocia Shampoo highly effective for chronic dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis.
The synergistic combination of Ketoconazole and Zinc Pyrithione works in multiple ways to deliver therapeutic results:
Fungal Cell Membrane Disruption: Ketoconazole inhibits ergosterol synthesis, weakening fungal cell membranes and causing fungal death.
Antibacterial & Antifungal Protection: Zinc Pyrithione reduces microbial growth and controls inflammation.
Scalp Oil Balance: The formula helps normalize sebum production, which plays a role in dandruff formation.
Cell Turnover Regulation: Zinc Pyrithione slows down the excessive shedding of scalp skin cells, reducing flakes and visible dandruff.
Anti-Inflammatory Effect: Both ingredients soothe irritated scalp, relieving itching and redness.
