Description
Sebornil Anti-Dandruff Shampoo 100ml – Piroctone Olamine & Salicylic Acid
Sebornil Anti-Dandruff Shampoo by Jenpharm combines two complementary actives to comprehensively treat dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, and chronic scalp flaking. Piroctone Olamine is a potent antifungal that regulates excess sebum production and eliminates the fungal species that colonise an oily scalp, keeping follicles clear and creating a healthy environment for hair growth. Salicylic Acid (BHA) provides gentle keratolytic exfoliation, dissolving the bonds between dead skin cells so scale lifts away easily, while simultaneously unclogging follicles to support new growth. Together they interrupt the cycle of flaking, itching, and excess oil that characterises seborrhoeic conditions.
Important guidance: because Salicylic Acid can increase photosensitivity, apply broad-spectrum SPF sunscreen to any exposed scalp or hairline the following morning. Perform a patch test 24 hours before first use. Begin with 2–3 applications per week; increase frequency only as tolerated. Avoid use on broken or compromised scalp. Consult a dermatologist before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Browse our Anti-Dandruff & Itchy Scalp Care range and explore our Salicylic Acid collection. The Dandruff Control range offers further targeted options.
For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes; rinse immediately if contact occurs. Keep out of reach of children. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

FAQs
What is Salicylic Acid doing in a hair shampoo?
Salicylic Acid acts as a BHA (beta-hydroxy acid) scalp exfoliant. It dissolves the glue-like bonds between dead scalp skin cells, removing scale and clearing follicle openings. This promotes a healthier scalp environment and can support new hair growth.
Why should I use SPF after using Sebornil?
Salicylic Acid increases the scalp's sensitivity to UV radiation (photosensitisation). Applying a broad-spectrum SPF to any exposed scalp, hairline, or parting the morning after use helps protect against sun-related irritation and damage.
How often should I use Sebornil Shampoo?
Start with 2–3 applications per week and increase frequency only as your scalp tolerates it. Many users find this frequency sufficient for sustained dandruff control without over-exfoliation.
Can I use Sebornil if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?
Consult your dermatologist or healthcare provider before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding, as Salicylic Acid can be absorbed through the scalp.
What if I have a sensitive or broken scalp?
Avoid use on broken, cracked, or significantly irritated scalp. Perform a patch test before first use. If sensitivity develops, discontinue immediately and seek dermatological advice.
