Selsun Topical Suspension is an antifungal medication, primarily used to treat seborrheic dermatitis (dandruff or scaly patches and red skin on the scalp), and tinea versicolor (a fungus that discolours the skin). Dandruff is a skin condition that causes itchy and scaly white or greyish flakes on the scalp skin.
Selsun Topical Suspension contains Selenium sulphide, an antifungal agent. It relieves itching and flaking of the scalp and removes the dry, scaly particles. It reduces skin damage due to infection, decreases flaking or scaling of the skin and helps in new skin formation. It blocks the enzymes that are involved in epithelial tissue growth.
Your doctor will advise the appropriate dose that suits your infection. Selsun Topical Suspension is for external use only. If the medicine gets into your eyes, nose or mouth, rinse with cold water. Selsun Topical Suspension has common side effects like dry scalp, skin irritation or temporary hair loss. These side effects usually do not require medical attention and gradually resolve during the treatment. If you experience any other symptoms you think may be due to Selsun Topical Suspension, please consult your doctor for further advice.
