It is suitable for all hair types and is intended for external use only.

Key Features

• Contains Ketoconazole 2% and Zinc Pyrithione 1% (ZPTO)
• Helps control dandruff and scalp fungal infections
• Soothes an itchy, irritated scalp
• Supports shinier, stronger looking hair
• Suitable for all types of hair

Key Ingredients

Each ml contains Ketoconazole I.P. 2% w/v and Zinc Pyrithione 1% w/v (ZPTO) in a cleansing shampoo base.

Benefits

Ketoconazole is a well-recognised antifungal agent that works against Malassezia, the yeast commonly associated with dandruff, while Zinc Pyrithione adds antibacterial and antifungal support that helps reduce flaking and scalp irritation. Used together, these actives help calm an itchy scalp, reduce visible flakes and leave hair looking healthier with regular, consistent use.

How It Works

When massaged into a wet scalp, Katcon Plus Shampoo’s active ingredients penetrate the scalp surface to reduce the growth of dandruff-causing yeast and control excess oiliness that can worsen flaking. Zinc Pyrithione works alongside Ketoconazole to keep the scalp environment balanced, helping reduce recurrence of dandruff with continued use.

Directions for Use

• Wet hair and scalp thoroughly with water
• Apply an adequate amount of shampoo and massage gently into the scalp using fingertips
• Leave on for a few minutes to allow the actives to work
• Rinse off thoroughly with water
• Use twice a week, or as directed by the physician

Side Effects

Katcon Plus Shampoo is generally well tolerated when used as directed. In rare cases, some individuals may experience mild scalp irritation, dryness or an allergic reaction. Discontinue use and consult a doctor if irritation worsens or persists. Avoid contact with eyes; rinse thoroughly with water if contact occurs.
