Kerashine-CT Anti-Dandruff Lotion is a combination of two medicines: Ketoconazole and Coal Tar which treat dandruff. Ketoconazole is an antifungal. It works by stopping the growth of dandruff-causing fungi by preventing them from forming their own protective covering. Coal Tar is a keratolytic medicine which helps break down the skin clumps on scalp and relieves itching and flaking associated with dandruff.

Kerashine-CT Anti-Dandruff Lotion must be applied on the affected area as prescribed by your doctor. Take care to avoid getting it in your eyes.
