How to Use
-
Read the product label and follow your doctor's instructions for frequency and duration.
-
Wet the hair and scalp thoroughly.
-
Apply enough shampoo to cover the affected scalp area.
-
Gently massage to create a lather, avoiding contact with the eyes.
-
Leave it on for the contact time specified by your doctor or the product leaflet.
-
Rinse thoroughly with water.

The package indicates that the shampoo may be used twice a week for four weeks, or as directed by a physician. Follow your own prescription if it differs. Do not use it more frequently or for longer than recommended.
How It Works
Ketoconazole 2%: Ketoconazole inhibits fungal lanosterol 14-alpha-demethylase, an enzyme involved in ergosterol synthesis. Ergosterol is essential for fungal cell membranes. Disrupting its production weakens normal fungal membrane function and helps control susceptible fungi associated with dandruff.
Salicylic Acid: This keratolytic ingredient helps loosen and shed excess dead skin cells, making scalp flakes and adherent scales easier to remove during washing.
Ichthyol Pale: This ingredient is included as part of the scalp-care formulation. Its presence does not establish a specific clinical benefit for every user, and the exact role depends on the formulation.
Together, these ingredients provide antifungal treatment alongside support for removing scalp scales. Results vary according to the cause and severity of the scalp condition and adherence to the prescribed regimen.

Interaction with Drugs
Systemic drug interactions are less likely with topical ketoconazole shampoo than with oral ketoconazole because absorption through intact skin is low. However, the following precautions are relevant:
-
Other medicated scalp products: Using other antifungal, keratolytic or irritating scalp treatments at the same time may increase dryness, burning or irritation.
-
Topical corticosteroids: If you are already using a steroid scalp preparation, ask your doctor how to coordinate treatment. Do not abruptly discontinue a prescribed steroid without medical advice.
-
Other topical medicines: Avoid layering multiple scalp treatments without professional guidance, especially products containing strong exfoliating agents or alcohol.
-
Oral medicines: Clinically significant interactions are not generally expected from normal shampoo use, but tell your healthcare professional about all medicines you take, particularly if the scalp is severely damaged or the product is being used unusually frequently.
This information does not replace a medication review by your doctor or pharmacist.

The availability of delivery services may vary depending on the customer's location and the operating schedule of the applicable courier or postal service.

Domestic orders are generally expected to be delivered within 2 to 10 working/service days from the date of dispatch, excluding Sundays and applicable non-service days.
The actual delivery time may vary depending upon:
-
Distance between the iMEDICART warehouse and the customer's delivery address;

Destination location and serviceability;
-
Courier or postal network conditions;
-
Sundays, national holidays, state/regional holidays, festival holidays, and local holidays;
-

Any delay caused by circumstances beyond iMEDICART's reasonable control.
Accordingly, the actual delivery time may vary from location to location.
Customers are responsible for providing a complete and accurate delivery address and remaining available to receive the shipment or coordinating with the applicable courier/postal service when required.
4. International Order Processing & Dispatch
International orders may require additional documentation and verification before dispatch due to applicable shipping, customs, postal, regulatory, or destination-country requirements.
International orders will generally be dispatched within a minimum of 1 day and a maximum of 10 days after order confirmation, subject to completion of required processing and documentation.
Where applicable, iMEDICART may request documents such as:
-
Passport or other acceptable identity document;
-
Government-issued ID proof;
-
Customer identification or verification information; and
-
Any other documentation reasonably required for international shipment processing or customs purposes.
The dispatch timeline may be affected if the required information or documentation is not provided promptly.
5. Failure to Provide Requested Documents
If a customer does not provide requested identification or other documentation within a reasonable period, iMEDICART may, where legally and operationally permissible, proceed with dispatch without such documentation.
However, the customer acknowledges that the absence of requested documentation may result in the shipment being delayed, held, returned, or subject to additional verification by the courier, postal authority, customs authority, or other competent authority.
In such circumstances, iMediCart shall not be responsible for delays or consequences arising from the customer's failure to provide requested documentation, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
6. International Delivery Time & Customs Clearance
International delivery timelines are dependent upon the customs clearance process and the postal/courier network in the destination country.
If the shipment clears all applicable customs procedures without delay, international delivery is generally expected to take approximately 10 to 30 days from the date of dispatch.
However, customs clearance is controlled by the relevant customs authorities and is outside iMediCart's direct control.
If a shipment is held, inspected, delayed, or otherwise affected by customs or other authorities, delivery may take substantially longer. In exceptional cases, an international shipment may take up to 90 days or longer, depending upon the circumstances and applicable procedures.
Therefore, the stated international delivery timeline is an estimated timeframe and not an absolute guarantee.
International shipments may also be affected by national holidays, regional holidays, festival holidays, local holidays, and non-working days in India or the destination country, as well as holidays observed by the applicable courier, postal service, customs authority, or logistics partner.
7. International Customs Delays, Holds & Returns
Once an international shipment has been dispatched and handed over to the applicable courier, postal service, or shipping carrier, customs clearance is the responsibility of the relevant customs authorities in the destination country.
iMEDICART will make reasonable efforts to assist customers with available shipment and tracking information. However, iMediCart cannot control:
-
Customs inspection or examination;
-
Customs clearance timelines;
-
Import restrictions;
-
Documentation requirements imposed by destination-country authorities;
-
Import duties or taxes;
-
Delays caused by customs authorities;
-
Local postal or courier delays;
-
National, regional, state, festival, or local holidays; or
-
Other actions or requirements imposed by governmental or regulatory authorities.
Where a shipment is held by customs, the customer may be required to provide additional information, documentation, payment of applicable duties/taxes, or other requirements imposed by the destination-country authorities.

iMEDICART.com charges the customer for the applicable product cost, Indian customs clearance (where applicable), and international shipping charges as specified at the time of purchase.
Any customs duties, import taxes, VAT/GST, handling charges, clearance charges, or other charges imposed by the destination country are the responsibility of the customer unless expressly stated otherwise at the time of purchase.
Such charges are not included in the payment made to iMEDICART unless specifically mentioned in the order.
The customer is responsible for complying with the import requirements applicable in their country.

For international shipments, tracking information may also be limited or temporarily unavailable while the shipment is undergoing customs processing or being transferred between postal/courier networks.
11. Returned International Shipments
