How Ketsal Products work

Ketoconazole + Salicylic Acid is a combination of two medicines: Ketoconazole + Salicylic Acid1 and Ketoconazole + Salicylic Acid2 which treat dandruff. Ketoconazole + Salicylic Acid1 is an antifungal. It works by stopping the growth of dandruff-causing fungi by preventing them from forming their own protective covering. Ketoconazole + Salicylic Acid2 is a keratolytic medicine which helps break down the skin clumps on scalp and relieves itching and flaking associated with dandruff.
