Can Nizoral Shampoo Make Hair Loss Worse?!

[Funkymonk1]

This isn't scare mongering or based on non facts. It's there in black and white in Nizorals own information leaflet that comes with the bottle. It's not referring to shedding either it says "hair loss". Yeah it says less then 1 in 100 people get this which may not sound like much but it's bad enough for a product that people take to help with hair loss. What do people think may be the cause of this? Is it people using the shampoo wrong or perhaps the sulphates or something else? Has anyone suffered from this?

Nizoral can be pretty harsh for the scalp. The common advice would be not to leave it on your scalp for too long nor use it too often.

To be honest I was thinking of changing to Regainpure when my nizoral runs out.
