Alpecin Dandruff Killer Shampoo
The new formula against dandruff

The first Alpecin shampoo with 4 active ingredients!

4 different active ingredients with 4 different modes of action form a joint anti-dandruff defense system.

Relieves scalp irritation, removes dandruff and provides quadruple action against new dandruff.

The quadruple active ingredient complex:

Zinc pyrithione and piroctone olamine are effective against fungi, yeast and bacteria. This prevents new dandruff and restores the scalp’s natural balance.
Salicylic acid and fumaric acid help remove existing dandruff. This creates a smooth scalp surface, thereby reducing the colonization of microorganisms in a sustained manner.
In addition, panthenol, allantoin and a sophisticated galenic formula prevent irritation and stabilize the scalp’s resistance.

Suitable for daily use against dandruff.

Application:
Distribute a walnut-sized quantity evenly in wet hair and massage in. Rinse out immediately.

Further Information

How does dandruff occur?
The skin cells at the skin’s surface permanently renew themselves. Normally, the detachment of old skin cells is not visible to the naked eye. If the scalp becomes unbalanced, this renewal process is disturbed. Due to increased secretion of sebum on the scalp, germs and microorganisms that occur naturally on the skin may exhibit increased growth and disrupt the scalp’s balance. As a consequence, the degradation products of sebum irritate the scalp and result in scalp itch. This results in increased detachment of skin cells. The excess sebum makes these skin cells stick together to form large, visible dandruff.
