What is Arcolane Scalp Solution (Ketoconazole)
Arcolane Scalp Solution (Ketoconazole) is made for stubborn dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis that keep coming back. If regular anti-dandruff shampoos are not cutting it, ketoconazole is a step up. It works by addressing Malassezia yeast on the scalp, a common trigger behind itch, flakes, and redness. Many dermatology teams recommend ketoconazole as part of a simple routine to get a healthier scalp.How Arcolane Solution helps
- Targets the source: Ketoconazole is an antifungal that reduces yeast overgrowth linked to flaking and irritation.
- Calms the scalp: With consistent use, it helps ease itch and visible flakes.
- Fits into routine: Use a few times per week at first, then move to maintenance once your scalp settles.
Who it may be for
- People with recurrent dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis
- An itchy or oily scalp with white or yellowish flakes
- Those looking for a dermatologist-trusted ingredient like ketoconazole
How to use Arcolane
- Wash and lather: Apply to wet scalp, work into a gentle lather, and focus on the areas that itch or flake most.
- Please wait a bit: Leave on the scalp for about 3 to 5 minutes so the ingredient can do its job.
- Rinse well: Rinse thoroughly. Avoid contact with the eyes. If it gets in the eyes, rinse with water.
- Frequency: Many start 2 to 3 times weekly for 2 to 4 weeks. Once things improve, shift to once weekly or as advised on the label.
- Missed a wash: No need to double up. Just use it at your next shampoo.
What to expect
- First few uses: Itch often feels calmer, and flakes look lighter.
- 2 to 4 weeks: The scalp typically looks clearer and has fewer flare-ups when used as directed.
- Maintenance: Keeping it in your routine once weekly or as needed helps prevent a relapse.
Tips for best results
- Pre-rinse if hair is very oily so that the solution can contact the scalp evenly.
- Massage gently with fingertips. Scratching can inflame the skin.
- Alternate with a mild, moisturising shampoo on non-treatment days.
- Keep routines simple. Heavy styling products can build up on the scalp.

FAQs About Arcolane Scalp Solution
Can I use this with hair loss treatments like minoxidil? Yes, many people do. Use the ketoconazole wash first, rinse well, dry the scalp, then apply minoxidil later. Give the scalp time to dry before applying leave-in products. If irritation shows up, space them out or check with your prescriber. Is it safe on colour-treated or keratin-treated hair? It is usually fine, but any shampoo can fade fresh dye if used the same day. Try to avoid washing right after a salon appointment, and use a gentle conditioner on the lengths to help preserve the hair's feel. Can I use it during pregnancy or while breastfeeding? Topical ketoconazole has minimal absorption, but data are limited. It is best to use it only if your healthcare provider recommends it. If you do use it, follow the label and rinse thoroughly. Can teens use ketoconazole scalp products? Teens may use them when a clinician recommends it for dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis. Younger children should only use it if a pediatrician advises. Please keep it away from your eyes and use the most minor effective frequency. What is the shelf life after opening, and how should I store it? Most ketoconazole scalp solutions have a shelf life of around 2 to 3 years unopened. After opening, keep the cap tight and store at room temperature. Discard if the product changes colour, separates, or develops an unusual scent. Always check the printed expiration date on your bottle.| size | 1 Bottle, 3 Bottle/s, 6 Bottle/s |
