Selsun Selenium Sulfide 2.5% Shampoo

Selsun selenium sulfide 2.5% suspension shampoo is manufactured by the reputable company Abbott. It contains 2.5% concentration of strong selenium sulfide as an active ingredient. Selsun shampoo is used to treat dandruff, tinea versicolor and certain types of dermatitis and inflammation of scalp due to excessive oil secretion like seborrhoeic dermatitis.

The shampoo works against dandruff in two ways – by reducing the greasiness of the scalp and by slowing down the growth of the dandruff-causing layer of skin cells.

How Does Selsun Shampoo Work?

The shampoo with selenium sulfide effectively destroys certain types of fungus called dermatophyte. It also causes a reduction in the production of dandruff-causing cells and follicles in the top layer of the skin as well as the amount of natural oil/sebum produced by the sebaceous skin glands.
