Opis
Triple-action shampoo for dry, scaly scalp conditions such as psoriasis, cradle cap, seborrhoeic dermatitis/eczema and dandruff. Capasal Therapeutic Shampoo may also be used to remove previous scalp applications.
‘Capasal’ is a trademark.
About scalp conditions
Dandruff, seborrhoeic eczema (also known as cradle cap in babies) and scalp psoriasis are the most common scalp conditions. These can be recognised from diagnostic signs such as flakes of skin in the hair, pink and itchy areas on the scalp or dense scaling on the scalp. The causes of dandruff, eczema and psoriasis are still unknown.
Shampoos are popular for the treatment of scalp conditions. In dandruff and seborrhoeic scalp conditions, a yeast (which is normally present on the scalp) can proliferate and make the condition worse. Health professionals may recommend a shampoo, which is active against this micro-organism.
Below is a text only representation of the Patient Information Leaflet (ePIL). ALWAYS READ THE LEAFLET ENCLOSED
1. What Capasal Therapeutic Shampoo is and what it is used for
- Capasal Therapeutic Shampoo is a treatment for dry, scaly scalp conditions such as:
- seborrhoeic eczema / seborrhoeic dermatitis (patches of red, scaly, itchy skin);
- pityriasis capitis (severe dandruff);
- cradle cap (thick, yellowish, scaly scalp rash in babies and infants), and;
- psoriasis (areas of raised, red, sometimes itchy, patches of skin, covered with silvery scales, without any blistering or tenderness).
- Capasal Therapeutic Shampoo can also be used to remove other medicines applied to the scalp.
- Capasal Therapeutic Shampoo is for use by adults, the elderly, children, infants and babies.
- This product contains three active ingredients:
- salicylic acid to remove scaly, flaky skin;

3. How to use Capasal Therapeutic Shampoo
Always use this medicine exactly as described in this leaflet or as your doctor, pharmacist or nurse has told you. Check with your doctor, pharmacist or nurse if you are not sure.
Use Capasal Therapeutic Shampoo only to treat the scalp conditions that it is intended for.
Use as a shampoo until the scalp looks and feels better or as recommended by your doctor, pharmacist or nurse. Capasal can be used daily if required, reducing frequency of use to once or twice a week as your condition improves. Thereafter, occasional use may be necessary.
The product, or the lather, may cause irritation if it gets into the eyes. If this happens, rinse with plenty of water. If rinsing one eye, take care to avoid washing product into the other eye. If irritation persists, contact a doctor or hospital. Do not worry if you use too much shampoo, simply rinse hair under running water and continue as instructed above. Do not worry if you occasionally forget to use this product, just carry on using it when you remember. If there is no improvement after 4 weeks, or if your scalp condition seems to look or feel worse, discontinue use of the product and consult your doctor, pharmacist or nurse. If you have any further questions on the use of this medicine, ask your doctor, pharmacist or nurse.

These rare effects tend to occur during or soon after the first few uses.
