Abstract

Dandruff is a persistent and annoying common condit ion affecting the scalp. It is also a challenging disease/disorder for management. This study reports the effect of shampoo ingredients on the antidandruff effect of climbazole in a shampoo formulation. The results indicate that the interaction between various ingredients greatly contribute to the antidandruff activity of climbazole. The antidandruff activity of climbazole was superior in SLES when compared to other surfactants used in the study.
