CONAZ SHAMPOO

Description

Conaz shampoo is a medicated anti-dandruff and antifungal shampoo for external use only. It is widely prescribed by dermatologists across Pakistan for stubborn dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, and other fungal scalp conditions. With its active ingredient ketoconazole, this shampoo targets the underlying fungus that often causes flaking, itching, and scalp irritation.

Key Ingredient

Conaz contains ketoconazole 2% (20mg per ml) as the active ingredient. Ketoconazole is a broad-spectrum antifungal agent that works against the fungi and yeasts responsible for many common scalp and skin problems. It is manufactured by Atco Laboratories in Pakistan.

Uses

Conaz shampoo may help with the following conditions when used as directed:

• Dandruff and persistent flaking
• Seborrheic dermatitis of the scalp
• Tinea versicolor (a fungal skin condition causing discolored patches)
• Itchy and irritated scalp
• Pityriasis capitis (mild dandruff with flaking)
• Fungal infections of the scalp

It is intended only for external use and should not be applied to the face or eyes.

How Conaz Shampoo Works

The ketoconazole in Conaz shampoo interferes with the growth of fungi by disrupting the formation of ergosterol, a key building block of the fungal cell membrane. Without ergosterol, the fungal cells weaken and die, helping to control infections like Malassezia, which is one of the main causes of dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis.

How to Use

Always follow your doctor’s or dermatologist’s instructions. The general usage guide is:

• Wet your hair and scalp thoroughly with water
• Apply a sufficient amount of Conaz shampoo to the affected area
• Massage gently to form a lather across the scalp
• Leave the shampoo on for 3 to 5 minutes
• Rinse thoroughly with clean water
• Use twice a week for 2 to 4 weeks for dandruff, or as advised by your doctor
• For prevention, use once every 1 to 2 weeks after the initial treatment

Avoid contact with the eyes. If contact occurs, rinse immediately with cold water.

Side Effects

Most users tolerate Conaz shampoo well, but some side effects may occur.

Common side effects:

Mild scalp dryness, slight burning or stinging on application, temporary changes in hair texture, mild irritation, and itching at the application site.

Less common side effects (stop use and consult a doctor):

Severe redness or rash, intense itching, blistering, hair loss beyond normal shedding, allergic reactions, or any signs of significant skin reaction.
