Nuforce Anti Dandruff Lotion

Nuforce Lotion is a medicated solution specially designed to treat dandruff and a flaky scalp. It helps control itching, irritation, and scalp flaking caused by fungal infections. Regular use of this lotion makes your scalp healthier and helps prevent dandruff from coming back.

The lotion contains two powerful ingredients: ketoconazole and zinc pyrithione. Together, they work by inhibiting fungal growth and maintaining a clean, infection-free scalp. This combination not only reduces dandruff but also soothes redness and discomfort.

You should use Nuforce Lotion exactly as your doctor advised. Usually, it is applied to the affected scalp areas and left on for a few minutes before rinsing. Do not use it more often than recommended, as excessive use may cause scalp dryness or irritation.

Avoid getting the lotion into your eyes, mouth, or nose. If it comes into contact with these areas, rinse thoroughly with water. Always wash your hands after applying the lotion to prevent spreading the medicine to other parts of your body.

For best results, continue using the lotion for the complete duration prescribed, even if your symptoms start to improve early. Maintaining good scalp hygiene and avoiding harsh hair products will also help you achieve faster, longer-lasting relief.

Dosage

Overdose

As Nuforce Lotion is only for external use, cases of overdose are unlikely. However, upon accidental ingestion contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

If you miss applying Nuforce Lotion, apply it the next time you wash your hair. Do not over apply the shampoo just to compensate for the missed application.

Mode of Action

How Does It Work?

Ketoconazole and zinc pyrithione are antifungal medicines. Dandruff is caused by a fungus Malassezia residing on the scalp. It inhibits the growth of fungus and yeasts by altering the permeability of fungal cell membranes. Hence, it prevents the growth of fungus and yeast. It results in the death of a fungal cell.
