Wet your hair thoroughly before applying Nizoral. This ensures even distribution and maximizes the shampoo’s contact with your scalp.

Application and Massage
Dispense a sufficient amount of Nizoral shampoo – approximately a tablespoon, depending on hair length and thickness. Gently massage the shampoo into your scalp using your fingertips. Focus on areas prone to dandruff or fungal infections. A thorough massage stimulates circulation and helps the active ingredients penetrate. Allow the shampoo to sit on your scalp for 3-5 minutes. This contact time is crucial for optimal results.
Rinsing and Frequency
- Rinse your hair thoroughly with lukewarm water until all traces of shampoo are gone. For best results, use Nizoral twice a week for the initial treatment period, usually four to six weeks. After this, adjust the frequency based on your needs, possibly reducing it to once a week or even less to maintain scalp health.
Additional Tips for Success
- Avoid using excessive heat on your hair after washing. Air drying is preferable. Maintain a balanced diet and manage stress levels; these lifestyle factors can influence scalp health. Consult a dermatologist or healthcare professional if your condition doesn’t improve or worsens after consistent use.
Addressing Specific Concerns
Managing Dryness
If Nizoral causes dryness, consider using a conditioner following shampooing. Choose a conditioner suited for your hair type.
