nizoral and other shampoos?

Guest · Jul 20, 2004

Question for nizoral-users. I'm from the Netherlands and with the Dutch ketoconazole-shampoo comes a note which says that one should not use the shampoo together with another shampoo on other days, because it would wash out all the active ingredients.

I checked all the keto-studies which proved Keto to be effective, and persons in those studies used exclusively nizoral:

Twenty-seven subjects used exclusively 2% KCZ shampoo 2-4 times weekly over a 21-month period.

What are your thoughts about this? Is nizoral ineffective when using other shampoos as well?

Once a shampoo has been used and its ingredients absorbed into the scalp it will not be knocked out of your system... If you look at most peoples regimes on here you will notice they use normally one or two shampoos. I use the brand name Nizoral and could find no mention of this in its directions and also use another shampoo.
