About Dufklin Lotion
Dufklin Lotion is used to treat fungal infections of the skin. Also, it is used to manage dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis. Fungal infection is a skin disease in which a fungus attacks the tissue and causes infection. Dandruff is a scalp condition characterised by dry, itchy, white flakes of skin on the scalp.
Dufklin Lotion is a combination of two drugs, namely: Cetrimide (antiseptic) and Ketoconazole (antifungal). Cetrimide works by preventing the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Ketoconazole works by damaging the fungal cell membranes that are essential for their survival. Together, they help to treat fungal infections of the skin and also dandruff.
Dufklin Lotion is for external use only. Use Dufklin Lotion as advised by your doctor. Some people may experience skin irritation, dry skin, a burning sensation, or a skin rash. Most of these side effects of Dufklin Lotion do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
If you are allergic to Dufklin Lotion or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or a nursing mother, it is advised to consult a doctor before using Dufklin Lotion. Avoid scratching the scalp as it may worsen dandruff. Cover your head with a scarf or hat while going out.

Dufklin Lotion is used to treat fungal skin infections and dandruff.
Dufklin Lotion contains Ketoconazole (antifungal) and Cetrimide (antiseptic). Ketoconazole works by stopping the growth of fungi causing dandruff. Cetrimide works by damaging the DNA (genetic material) of bacteria and other microorganisms. Thereby, kills micro-organisms. Thus, Dufklin Lotion helps to treat dandruff and provides relief from flaky and itchy scalp.
If you have mild dandruff, you are recommended to wash your hair daily with a gentle shampoo to reduce scalp oiliness. If your regular shampoo does not work or if you have severe dandruff, use an anti-dandruff shampoo.

You are not recommended to stop using Dufklin Lotion without consulting your doctor, as it may worsen the condition. Therefore, use Dufklin Lotion for as long as your doctor has prescribed it, and if you experience any difficulty while using Dufklin Lotion, please consult your doctor.
