Selsun Medicated Suspension 2.5% (100ml) - Treatment for Stubborn Dandruff
Selsun Medicated Suspension is a specialized medicated shampoo containing 2.5% Selenium Sulfide. It is widely recognized in Nigeria as an effective solution for persistent scalp conditions that do not respond to regular anti-dandruff shampoos.
This treatment works in two ways: it targets the yeast (Malassezia) responsible for scalp infections and slows down the production of skin cells, which reduces visible flaking and itching.
Key Uses
- Stubborn Dandruff: Provides relief from heavy flaking and scalp irritation.
- Seborrhoeic Dermatitis: Treats red, itchy, and inflamed skin on the scalp.
- Tinea Versicolor: Also used for treating "white spots" or discolored patches on the skin.

Safety Precautions
