The active ingredient found in Nizoral hair loss shampoo is known as Ketoconazole, which is a drug that technically falls into the category of an ‘antifungal’.
Dihydrotestosterone is a chemical that forms from testosterone, and when it’s levels are too high, it can aid in the death of your hair follicles which in turn makes them fall out.
Nizoral Hair Loss Shampoo (technically anti-dandruff shampoo) has been proven to drastically reduce the conversion rate of testosterone to the hair thinning chemical- dihydrotestosterone, which is why it is commonly used to treat people with acute hair loss.
Although the amount of shampoo needed from patient to patient varies, the most common Nizoral application is 5-10mL on your pre-soaked scalp.
Simply leave the lather on for about 5 minutes, then wash away as you would with any other shampoo. If you happen to get the Nizoral hair loss shampoo into your eyes, just wash it out thoroughly until the burning has completely stopped.
Although the application and doseage suggested here are the most common, they should not be over-ride any instructions recieved by your personal doctor.
