I first bought this shampoo based off internet research and bulletin's and reading about various types of dandruff and acne issues on the back (bacne). On a well-known website for dermatology from a famous university there I saw pictures of acne on the back and neck that was treated in the traditional way for acne but unsuccessfully. It was later noted that this acne was not truly acne but rather a reaction to a specific type fungi/yeast that lives on the oil produced by the body. Of particular areas this thrives is the upper back and chest, and the triangle area directly above the cleft of the buttocks. Also on the scalp, wherever it is present the person has what seems to be deep, painful itchy zits. The people who had this type of fungi were all successfully treated with Ketoconazole. Ketoconazole is POWERFUL anti-fungal (belonging to the "azole" family). This shampoo is highly effective against this type of dandruff that may be untreatable with other types of dandruff shampoos. I bought this and the zits and bacne COMPLETELY WENT AWAY. The bad thing is, that I start to get acne almost immediately upon stopping its use. The good thing is, that this is the FIRST summer in years that I have been able to wear tank tops! Also, no more itchy bumps on my head and around my lower hairline. It also seemed to really make a difference with the acne I was getting on my face! I have been using it as a body wash for my back and upper chest as well as shampoo. This is how I got rid of my bacne and acne on my chest as well as the dandruff type symptoms on my head. I am thinking about using it as a face wash now too! BTW, you can get the 2% Ketoconozole shampoo from a dermatologist, but its usually not necessary. Try Nizoral first! Since it is anti-fungal, try using it for Tinea Versicolor, which is also a fungal based rash. (Results in patches of de-pigmented areas on the skin). Let the shampoo lather up and let it sit on your skin for 2 minutes before rinsing off. I can't stop using this stuff..I tried everything on my back, salycilic acid sprays, benzoil peroxide bars and creams. All I got from those were more zits or stained/bleached t-shirts. I am 34 years old, and I have no idea why I have these skin problems since I hit about age 30. I am attributing it to some sort of hormoneal imbalance. Ketoconazole also has anti-androgenic effects, and many body builders use it on their back and hair to prevent the thinning of hair and acne that results from their steroid abuse.

I loved the prescription version years ago, but this doesn't perform nearly as well and is almost as expensive. It's also a touch harsh on the scalp. The fragrance they use to cover the medicinal smell is pleasant, but my scalp is still flaky so I will not repurchase.

          Love, love, love, this product! I use a couple of times in a week when an outbreak occurs and it clears up very quickly. Then I may go for months until needed again. Can't live without it!

              It took several years of trying different shampoos before I was ready to spend a little more $ for this. Immediately there was a dramatic improvement. Now I just use 2-3X a month and it keeps the flakes at bay. No more embarrassment when I go to the hair salon. (Nothing they suggested ever worked).

              The scalp itching stopped after one application. The product did strip a bit of color from my colored hair. This product had been recommended by my Dermatologist for dandruff control.

                  I get this rash every now and then, caused by dead skin cells from hairy areas. My doc prescribed this years ago, and everytime this painful rash appears, I use this product. It never fails to work, and has saved me tons of money not having to go to the dermatologist every single time this rash appears. I use it wherever there is hair growth, because that is where the rash breaks out. Drugstore.com currently has the lowest price on this, after doing an exhaustive web search. Thank you Drugstore.com!!

                      I have struggled with dandruff for over 30 years and had tried everything (or so I thought): Denorex, Selsun Blue, Head & Shoulders, Neutrogena. My dandruff was getting worse, and so I finally gave in and spent the money on Nizoral. I wish I had done so years ago. Nizoral has eliminated my flakes (I can wear black!) and itching. It works well as a shampoo and smells fresh and clean. I only need to use it once per week, and it works GREAT. I am so happy it's back in stock after being unavailable for several months!!!!
