Inclusive of all taxesSelsun Suspension 60 ml is an antifungal medication, primarily used to treat seborrheic dermatitis (dandruff or scaly patches and red skin on the scalp), and tinea versicolor (a fungus that discolours the skin). Dandruff is a skin condition that causes itchy and scaly white or greyish flakes on the scalp skin.
Selsun Suspension 60 ml contains Selenium sulphide, an antifungal agent. It relieves itching and flaking of the scalp and removes the dry, scaly particles. It reduces skin damage due to infection, decreases flaking or scaling of the skin and helps in new skin formation. It blocks the enzymes that are involved in epithelial tissue growth.
Your doctor will advise the appropriate dose that suits your infection. Selsun Suspension 60 ml is for external use only. If the medicine gets into your eyes, nose or mouth, rinse with cold water. Selsun Suspension 60 ml has common side effects like dry scalp, skin irritation or temporary hair loss. These side effects usually do not require medical attention and gradually resolve during the treatment. If you experience any other symptoms you think may be due to Selsun Suspension 60 ml, please consult your doctor for further advice.
Let your doctor know if you have any allergic reactions to Selsun Suspension 60 ml or other medications. Please check with your doctor before using Selsun Suspension 60 ml if you have any other skin infections. Selenium sulfide in Selsun Suspension 60 ml may harm the foetus when applied to a pregnant woman's body surfaces or can affect reproduction capacity. Hence it is advised that pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult the doctor before starting Selsun Suspension 60 ml.

- Practise yoga and meditation to control your stress, which is the greatest enemy of hair fall.
