Dandruff is nothing to do with bacteria, it's due to a fungus.Nizoral shampoo contains an active ingredient called ketoconazole, which is an anti-fungal medicine. So yes it treats he underlying problem too.



Dandruff is an itchy skin disorder of the scalp that occurs during the normal process of the scalp’s skin replacing skin cells. It is associated with a tiny fungus called Pityrosporum ovale. This fungus normally lives on our bodies and scalp all the time without causing issues. For some of us, this fungus goes out of control causing the symptoms.

it's a good shampoo to start off with, then it stops working.



if you have a problem with your scalp I would highly recommend Kiehl's anti dandruff shampoo (available in this country from Space NK) it is the best stuff that I have ever used and do not suffer at all anymore, it has good results and I've been using it for 2 years.

Nizoral is an effective anti-fungal agent. I has an ingredient called as "Ketokonazole" that stops fungal infection in the scalp by destroying them. So it usually treats the root cause of scalp infection.
