FAQs on Seldan Shampoo

Seldan Shampoo is an antifungal treatment for dandruff, relieving itching and scaling caused by the overgrowth of *Pityrosporum orbiculare* ( *Malassezia furfur*), a common skin fungus. It also effectively treats tinea versicolor, characterized by irregular white or brown patches, sometimes appearing after sun exposure. Consistent scalp application provides relief from dandruff-related discomfort.
Seldan Shampoo is not recommended for children due to unknown safety implications. Avoid using Seldan Shampoo on children or yourself without first consulting a doctor.
Seldan Shampoo isn't antibacterial; it's an antifungal medication for dandruff. Dandruff often stems from the fungus *Pityrosporum orbiculare* (also known as *Malassezia furfur*). Therefore, Seldan Shampoo effectively treats the fungal infection causing dandruff.
For dandruff treatment, use Seldan Shampoo twice a week; for prevention, use it once weekly. Do not exceed the recommended frequency. When in doubt, seek medical advice.
Begin by thoroughly wetting your hair or affected area. Apply a small amount of Seldan Shampoo, massaging gently to create a lather. Let it sit for 3–5 minutes before rinsing thoroughly. For long, thick hair, pre-wash with your regular shampoo before using Seldan Shampoo.
Itching and soreness should subside within days of starting treatment, but redness and scaling may persist longer. Continue applying the medication as directed by your doctor, even if your symptoms improve.
When washing your hair, avoid getting shampoo in your eyes. If it does get in, rinse your eyes gently with water.
Use Seldan Shampoo externally only. Avoid contact with your mouth. If accidental ingestion occurs, rinse your mouth with water. While generally harmless, consult a doctor if concerned.
