Nizral Solution is intended to treat specific fungal infections of the skin. The active ingredient in Nizral Solution is Ketoconazole.
 
Nizral Solution features Ketoconazole, which is effective against seborrheic dermatitis, a major contributor to dandruff. Ketoconazole alters the pH levels of the scalp, helping to prevent the conditions conducive to fungal infections. It is recommended to apply Nizral Solution twice a week for a duration of 14 to 30 days. On the other days, a non-medicated shampoo should be used. Apply Nizral Solution to a wet scalp and let it sit for 3 to 5 minutes before rinsing thoroughly.
 
Potential side effects include headache, vomiting, constipation, nausea, and dizziness. While it is very rare, there is a possibility of liver issues occurring.
 
Nizral Solution is meant for external application only. It is not advised for use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, as trace amounts of Ketoconazole can be found in breast milk.
 
It is recommended to avoid alcohol during treatment, as the combination may lead to nausea and vomiting. Ketoconazole may elevate the levels and effects of the following medications: Methylprednisolone, Warfarin, Cisapride, certain antihistamines such as Terfenadine and Astemizole, Cyclosporin, Busulphan, HMG Co-A reductase inhibitors, and antidiabetic sulphonylureas.
 
The following medications can reduce the levels of Ketoconazole: Phenytoin, Isoniazid, Rifampicin, and Carbamazepine.
