What
causes dandruff?
Dandruff (or dry flaky scalp) is an itchy,
annoying and persistent skin disorder of the
scalp. A dark suit and dandruff simply don't go
together! Dandruff is associated with a tiny
fungus called Pityrosporum ovale, P ovate for
short. This fungus lives on our bodies and scalp
all the time, usually without causing a problem.
But unfortunately for some people, it can increase
in numbers, leading to dandruff. Various
environmental factors such as perspiration,
climate, inadequate diet as well as stress,
hormonal activity, or even a person's genetic
make-up may also aggravate the problem.
For dandruff sufferers, the natural process of
scalp-cell renewal is accelerated when fighting
off P ovate, causing dead cells to fall off
faster. This is a leading cause of dandruff and
all the symptoms that go with it - the flaking,
scaling and itching. Dandruff is often known as
"dry scalp”, but people with oily scalps tend to
suffer most. An oily scalp supports the growth of
P. ovate.
Dandruff is most easily
recognized as whitish scales on the scalp and red
around the hair follicles. If the scales are
yellow and greasier than normal dandruff scales,
and the skin is red and itchy, the condition could
be a severe form of dandruff known as seborrheic
dermatitis. This may spread to other areas, for
example the eyebrows, beard, or the folds around
the nose.

The right answer to dandruff and
seborrheic dermatitis |
Most other anti-dandruff shampoos work by
normalizing the pH of the scalp. That is, they try
and modify the environment which allows the fungi
to survive. A more effective option is to
eradicate the causative organism directly by using
ZINORAL Shampoo.
Ketoconazole - the active ingredient of
ZINORAL -
is a well-studied anti-dandruff antifungal drug,
making it the scientific answer for dandruff, with
over a decade of clinical experience. Ketoconazole
shampoo has been successfully used by millions of
dandruff sufferers the world over.
ZINORAL Shampoo is also unique in that its effect
is long-lasting. Even after rinsing,
ZINORAL is
active for several days. This means that you don't
need to use ZINORAL every day making it extremely
cost-effective. In fact one small bottle of
ZINORAL should last between three and six months.
And unlike some other anti-dandruff treatments,
ZINORAL Shampoo has a -pleasant fragrance and is
pH-balanced leaving hair soft, healthy and clean.
