Dandruff can be stubborn and frustrating. Pirox Shampoo offers an effective, antifungal approach that relieves dandruff, itching, and irritation while improving scalp health over time. Here is a closer look at its benefits, ingredients, how to use it, and its price in Pakistan.

5 Benefits of Pirox Shampoo
Formulated by Crystolite Pharmaceuticals, Pirox tackles dandruff at the root while keeping the scalp balanced and hair soft:
- Effective dandruff control: its active ingredient, Piroctone Olamine, targets the fungus behind dandruff and reduces flakes.
- Soothes itching and irritation: calms the scalp discomfort dandruff often causes.
- Antifungal action: addresses the root cause for longer-term scalp health.
- Nourishes the scalp: Vitamin E and Panthenol moisturize and prevent the dryness that worsens dandruff.
- Supports healthy hair: Triaminodil helps strengthen roots and reduce hair fall.
Key Ingredients
- Piroctone Olamine: antifungal agent that treats dandruff at its source.
- Triaminodil: supports hair strength and healthier growth.
- Vitamin E: nourishes and hydrates the scalp.
- Panthenol: moisturizes and soothes while improving hair texture.
How to Use
Wet hair thoroughly, apply a small amount to the scalp, and massage gently for a few minutes. Leave on for 2–3 minutes so the active ingredients can work, then rinse well. For most people, using this anti-dandruff shampoo 2–3 times a week is enough, or as advised by your doctor.
Price in Pakistan
Pirox Shampoo is affordable, typically ranging from PKR 850 to PKR 1,200 depending on seller and pack size. It is available at leading pharmacies, online stores, and skincare clinics. Compare it with other medicated shampoos to find the right fit for your scalp.
FAQs
Can it be used daily? It is generally recommended 2–3 times a week unless a dermatologist advises otherwise.
Does it dry out hair? No — Panthenol and Vitamin E help prevent scalp dryness, and the formula is sulfate-free, so it is safe for colour-treated hair.
How soon will I see results? Most users notice less dandruff and itching within 2–3 weeks of regular use.
Any precautions? Avoid broken or inflamed skin, tell your doctor about other topical or oral medicines, and stop use if irritation persists.
