"KETOCONAZOLE (Nizoral ) very effective merong sachet sa watson. Lahat na ata ng pang anti dandruff na try ko na yan Lang effective sakin."
"Nizoral is an antifungal dandruff shampoo that works absolute wonders. For me, it completely got rid of the WORST bout of flakes I've ever had, and it healed up all the seborrheic dermatitis that I had on my face and ears, too! I cannot recommend it enough!"
"Nizoral!! I will use that stuff forever"
"I alternate it with nizoral shampoo because it's actually targeting the beasties living on my scalp causing havoc."
"Nizoral saved me from a super terrible scalp + behind the ear flare-up that happened two yrs ago when I also got a viral illness. I still use it for maintenance once a week."
"Stylist here. I always recommend either nizoral or nioxin."
"I've been on Nizoral for months and it works well for me when I'm consistent."
"Nizoral"
"Now that my seborrheic dermatitis is controlled I use Nizoral 3 days a week."
