Product introduction

Powercort Shampoo is a medicine used in the treatment of moderate to severe scalp psoriasis, a skin condition that causes red, scaly patches on the scalp. It works by reducing inflammation, itching, and redness, helping to clear the skin, relieve discomfort, and help manage flare-ups.

Apply a small amount of Powercort Shampoo to your scalp, gently massage it in, and leave it on for about 15 minutes before rinsing. Follow your doctor’s instructions, typically using it once a day for up to 4 weeks, unless otherwise directed.

Use Powercort Shampoo in the exact dose and duration as prescribed by your doctor. Apply a small amount of Powercort Shampoo to the scalp and gently massage it in. Leave it on for 15 minutes before rinsing thoroughly with water. Stick to your prescribed routine and avoid overuse, as long-term use of Powercort Shampoo can cause thinning of the skin.

Common side effects of Powercort Shampoo include burning sensation of skin, acne, and inflammation of hair follicles. These are usually temporary and go away on their own. If they get worse or persist, or you notice signs of a skin infection (like swelling or pus), stop using the shampoo and consult your doctor.

Before using Powercort Shampoo, inform your doctor about any other medications you are taking to avoid potential interactions. Avoid contact with your eyes, mouth, or any areas of broken skin. In case of accidental contact, rinse it thoroughly with plenty of water. Do not use it on other parts of your body unless directed by your doctor. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should talk to their doctors before starting this medication to make sure it is safe for them.
