Cetrimide Information

Cetrimide is a highly effective medical shampoo. Unfortunately, we cannot provide you with sufficient information concerning the main components of this medical product. We strongly advise you to refer to your prescribing medical professional or to your local pharmacist for information concerning this matter. The product’s professional leaflet should contain a list of the most important ingredients of Cetrimide.

Cetrimide Indications

This type of medical shampoo is widely recommended to patients who complain of the presence of dandruff or who suffer from oily / itchy scalp. The use of Cetrimide has proven quite effective in easing all of these unpleasant symptoms. If you want to know more about how your regular therapy with Cetrimide help you get rid of dandruff, itchy / oily scalp, and so on, you should refer to your PD. Although this medication can be purchased without a special prescription, you should discuss with your main medical prescriber whether the regular use of this medical shampoo is indeed the best solution in your case.

Cetrimide Warnings

Before your medical specialist decides whether you are indeed fit to start using this medical product on a regular basis, he or she will want to know more about your current medical condition, about your past clinical history (personal and family history), and so on. You may also have to undergo certain medical exams (especially allergy tests) before your prescriber allows you to start using Cetrimide. Although this medical shampoo is widely used by numerous patients from all over the world, not everyone will benefit from a therapy course with this product. For example, those who suffer from an allergic reaction to one or more of Cetrimide’s components should not start using this type of medical shampoo. In such cases, the patient’s PD will have to seek an alternative therapeutic solution for their scalp medical problem.

The use of Cetrimide in the case of children younger than 3 years of age is not recommended, as infants are known to be much more sensible to experiencing the side effects of this product. Although the use of Cetrimide should not harmfully interact with the normal developing of a growing baby (if this shampoo is used by a pregnant female), such a patient should consult a gynecologist when deciding whether she will start using this medical product or not.
