What is ketoconazole?
Ketoconazole is an antifungal medication commonly found in medicated shampoos. It helps treat dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, and other scalp conditions.
It’s also been studied for its anti-androgenic properties, which may help reduce hair loss by blocking DHT activity at the scalp level.
Using ketoconazole alongside red light therapy can support scalp health by controlling inflammation and enhancing follicular conditions necessary for regrowth.
