Fluconazole + Zinc Pyrithione

Fluconazole + Zinc Pyrithione is a widely used combination for managing dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, and fungal scalp infections. Fluconazole is an antifungal agent that stops fungal growth by disrupting the cell membrane, while Zinc Pyrithione helps reduce flaking, itching, and scaling by targeting yeast on the scalp. Together, they control fungal overgrowth, soothe irritation, and restore scalp health. This combination helps eliminate dandruff, prevents recurrence, and promotes a cleaner, healthier scalp.
