Capasal Therapeutic Shampoo 250ml

When dealing with persistent scalp issues such as dandruff, seborrhoeic dermatitis, psoriasis, or even seborrhoeic eczema, finding the right treatment is essential. Capasal Therapeutic Shampoo 250ml is formulated to address these concerns, offering comprehensive care that goes beyond regular shampoo.

Targeted Relief for Scalp Conditions

Capasal Therapeutic Shampoo is a trusted solution for managing dry and scaly scalp conditions. Its unique triple-action formula is designed to alleviate itching, reduce excessive scaling, and soften the skin. It’s even gentle enough for delicate conditions like cradle cap in infants, making it a versatile addition to your family's healthcare routine. Beyond treating existing conditions, it can also be used to effectively remove other scalp applications.

Key Ingredients and How They Work

This powerful shampoo contains a carefully balanced combination of active ingredients:

• Distilled Coal Tar (1.0% w/w): Known for its mild antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties, coal tar helps to relieve itching and reduce the rapid turnover of skin cells that cause scaling and thickening. This helps to restore a normal, healthier skin development.
• Salicylic Acid (0.5% w/w): A keratolytic agent, salicylic acid aids in breaking down and shedding dead skin cells. This reduces flaking and helps to prevent further buildup of scales on the scalp.
• Coconut Oil (1.0% w/w): Included for its moisturising and emollient properties, coconut oil helps to soften and lubricate the dry, scaly skin, providing much-needed comfort and reducing dryness.

Who Can Use Capasal Therapeutic Shampoo?

Capasal Therapeutic Shampoo 250ml is suitable for use by adults, the elderly, children, infants, and babies. Its gentle yet effective formulation makes it a reliable choice for the entire family seeking relief from uncomfortable scalp conditions.

For adults, the elderly, children, infants and babies:

• Wet hair thoroughly.
• Apply a small amount of Capasal Therapeutic Shampoo 250ml to the scalp (approximately a quantity the size of a fifty pence piece for short hair, adjusting up depending on length/thickness of hair).
• With the tips of the fingers, massage in thoroughly.
• Leave on for a few minutes.
• Remove as much lather as possible with the hands (this is important as it will take the scales with it).
• Rinse out.
• If necessary, repeat the steps above.
• Rinse out well under running water, then dry the hair as normal.

Use daily if required, reducing frequency of use to once or twice a week as your condition improves. Thereafter, occasional use may be necessary.
