What is Selsun Gold Shampoo used for?

It is used to treat problem dandruff and the scaling, flaking, and itching that come with it. The active ingredient, selenium sulfide, is an antifungal that targets the Malassezia yeast commonly linked to dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis. It may also help manage tinea versicolor, a fungal issue that causes uneven patches of skin colour on the body.

What are the key benefits for an itchy, flaking scalp?

This medicated shampoo focuses on the root cause rather than masking symptoms.

• May reduce visible flaking and white scalp flakes
• Helps calm itching and redness tied to dandruff
• Supports control of seborrheic dermatitis on the scalp
• Slows the fast skin-cell turnover that feeds flaking
• Works on most hair types when used as directed

What is the active ingredient and how does it work?

The active ingredient is selenium sulfide 2.5%, a proven antifungal used in medicated scalp care. It lowers the activity of the yeast that triggers dandruff and eases the shedding of scalp skin. This dual action is why a treatment shampoo often outperforms a cosmetic one for persistent flaking.

How do you use it on the scalp?

Wet the hair, then apply a small amount and massage into the scalp. Leave it on for two to three minutes so the active ingredient can work, then rinse well. For most people, twice-weekly use for two to four weeks is typical, as per the label. Always read the pack and follow directions, and consult your doctor before use if you are unsure.

Who should use this anti-dandruff shampoo?

It is designed for adults with ongoing or hard-to-clear dandruff, flaking, and scalp itching. People with seborrheic dermatitis may also find it useful under guidance. Avoid using on broken or inflamed skin, and stop if irritation develops. As per DRAP guidance, medicated products should be used as labelled.
