Ketoconazole shampoo.

Things I have noticed when using Nizorelle (contains Ketoconazole)shampoo,

It Lathers up well,
Hair smell good the next day,

Things I have noticed when using Nizoral 1% 20mg/g Ketoconazole,

It does not lather up well,
No noticeable smell the next day,

I prefer Nizorelle but is it as effective as Nizoral as an anti-androgen?

bluenun stick the ingredients up here for 'Nizorelle' and I am sure someone can answer your question.

P.S

Things I have noticed when using Nizoral 1% 20mg/g Ketoconazole

20mg/g (20 milligrams per gram) is a 2% solution not 1%.

Thanks for the p.s Tynan, I asked at Boots pharmacy for the 1% and because I was not asked for a prescrition I assumed it was the 1% she sold me.

Anyway if anyone has an answer to my original question I would be grateful.
