About Luly ZS Anti-Dandruff Shampoo 100 ml

Luly ZS Anti-Dandruff Shampoo 100 ml is used to treat dandruff. Dandruff is a scalp condition characterized by dry, itchy, white flakes of skin on the scalp. 

Luly ZS Anti-Dandruff Shampoo 100 ml is a combination of three drugs: Luliconazole, Zinc pyrithione, and Salicylic acid. Luliconazole works by damaging the fungal cell membranes that are essential for their survival and kills fungi that cause dandruff. Zinc pyrithione stops fungal growth by making fungal cells absorb copper, which inactivates protein mechanisms in cells. Salicylic acid is a keratolytic agent that works by breaking down a protein known as keratin (that forms part of skin structure) and removes dead skin cells, and softens skin. Thus, Luly ZS Anti-Dandruff Shampoo 100 ml helps to treat dandruff and provide relief from flaky and itchy scalp.
