Neutrogena T/Gel Therapeutic Shampoo - 250ml

Neutrogena T/Gel Therapeutic Shampoo is a medicated shampoo that is designed to treat itchy and flaky scalp conditions such as dandruff, psoriasis, and seborrheic dermatitis. This fragranced shampoo is recommended for use two to three times per week to help control these conditions, and regular use for up to six weeks can provide long-lasting relief.

This therapeutic shampoo is suitable for use by adults and children aged 12 years and over. However, it is important to note that Neutrogena T/Gel should not be used in children under 12 years old, individuals with a known sensitivity to coal tar or any of the ingredients in the product, or those with inflamed or broken skin. Additionally, individuals with rare and severe forms of psoriasis, such as erythrodermic or pustular psoriasis, should also avoid using this product.

If you are considering using Neutrogena T/Gel during pregnancy or breastfeeding, it is important to speak with your doctor or pharmacist for advice. Some of the ingredients in this shampoo, such as methyl (E218) and propyl (E216) parahydroxybenzoate, may cause allergic reactions that could be delayed. The shampoo also contains fragrances with several components that may cause allergic reactions, such as alpha-isomethyl-ionone, amyl cinnamal, benzyl benzoate, and limonene, among others.

It is important to follow the instructions for use of Neutrogena® T/Gel® Therapeutic Shampoo carefully to ensure the best results. The shampoo should be massaged into the scalp and left for several minutes before rinsing thoroughly with water. If contact with the eyes occurs, rinse them thoroughly with water. Additionally, it is important to note that coal tar, one of the active ingredients in the shampoo, may cause the skin to react to sunlight after use, so it is recommended to avoid direct sunlight immediately after use.

While Neutrogena T/Gel is generally safe and effective when used as directed, it is possible to experience side effects with any medication or product. In rare cases, temporary discoloration of grey, blonde, bleached, or tinted hair may occur. If irritation develops, discontinue use of the shampoo and speak with your doctor or pharmacist.
