Nizoral everyday

[jksl]

Can someone please explain to me why Nizoral is only recommended for 2 to 3 times use per week? I feel the minoxidil penitrate my scalp better after having used Nizoral in the shower. What are the downsides to using it everyday?

Just judging by my own anecdotal usage of the product I might have an idea. At first, I started using it daily. Gotta block that DHT topically everyday...makes sense, right? Or so I thought, at least. Well, this was before I knew that 2-3 times per week was the recommended usage. After about a month or so of daily usage, my hair was really unhealthy and dry. It seemed almost crunchy in certain parts of my scalp. It's original use was as a dandruff shampoo, so it does tend to have a greater effect on the hair and scalp than regular shampoo.
