How does ANABOOM AD SHAMPOO work?

Zinc Pyrithione helps by inhibiting membrane transport and disrupting cellular functions within fungal cells, thereby stopping their growth and spread.

Leave the shampoo on the scalp for 3 to 5 minutes before rinsing thoroughly with water. It is generally recommended to use it regularly, often at least three times a week for a period of four weeks, or as advised by your doctor.

What are the possible side effects of ANABOOM AD SHAMPOO?

ANABOOM AD SHAMPOO is generally considered safe for external use. However, some common side effects that may occur at the application site include burning, irritation, itching, or redness. These side effects are usually mild and tend to resolve on their own. Serious side effects are rare, but hair loss has been reported in rare cases.

Is ANABOOM AD SHAMPOO safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

Information regarding the safety of ANABOOM AD SHAMPOO during pregnancy and breastfeeding is conflicting. Some sources indicate no established interaction, while others advise caution or state it's not recommended for pregnant women. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to consult your doctor or healthcare provider before using this shampoo if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Can ANABOOM AD SHAMPOO be taken with other medications?

It is generally unlikely that ANABOOM AD SHAMPOO, being a topical product, will significantly interact with medicines taken orally or by injection. However, if you are currently using other topical treatments for dandruff or scalp conditions, it is advisable to consult your doctor before using ANABOOM AD SHAMPOO to avoid potential interactions or excessive irritation.

What precautions should be taken while using ANABOOM AD SHAMPOO?

Do not leave the shampoo on your scalp for longer than the recommended duration (typically 3-5 minutes), and do not use more than the advised amount, as this will not speed up treatment and may increase side effects. If you experience persistent irritation or develop any new skin infection, discontinue use and consult your doctor. It is not recommended for children below 12 years of age without medical consultation.
