Salidex Lotion is primarily used to treat dandruff and control seborrheic dermatitis (scaly patches and red skin on the scalp). Dandruff is a flaky, itchy scalp without signs of inflammation.

Salidex Lotion contains ketoconazole (antifungal) and salicylic acid (keratolytic agent). Ketoconazole works by preventing the growth of dandruff-causing fungi. Salicylic acid works by removing dead cells from the skin’s top layer. It decreases scaling and dryness, thus relieving itching and cracking related to dandruff.

You may experience warmth or a burning sensation, skin irritation, itching, and redness at the application site. Most of these side effects of Salidex Lotion do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Do not use Salidex Lotion if you are allergic to any of its components. Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers should consult the doctor before using Salidex Lotion. Salidex Lotion is not recommended for children below 12 years, as the safety and efficacy of Salidex Lotion have not been established.
