Zithranol Information:

• What

What is Zithranol?

Zithranol contains the antimitotic drug anthralin, an anti-psoriatic agent prescribed to treat psoriasis of the scalp. It works by preventing the development and spread of affected skin cells.

• How

How do I take Zithranol?

Zithranol is a medicated shampoo for use only on the scalp. The amount applied and the frequency of use will depend on the severity of the condition, the strength of the medication, and the medical profile of the patient. Use this medication only for the prescribed time. To use, wet your hair, apply Zithranol and gently massage it into the scalp to create a lather. Allow the shampoo to remain on the scalp for three to five minutes before rinsing with lukewarm water. Following this, the hair may be washed with a traditional shampoo, if desired. Wash your hands thoroughly after using Zithranol.

• Precautions

Before taking Zithranol, tell your doctor if:

• You are allergic to anthralin, any of the ingredients in Zithranol, or any other medications
• You are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or are nursing a child
• You are taking any prescription or non-prescription medications, vitamins, or supplements
• You have folliculitis or any skin disease or condition
• You have kidney disease or kidney problems
• Side Effects

What are the possible side effects of taking Zithranol?

Some people have reported mild side effects after using Zithranol, including mild irritation at the application site. If this condition persists or worsens, contact your healthcare provider. Severe side effects requiring immediate medical attention have been reported as well. These include signs of an allergic reaction (rash, hives, itching, peeling or blistered skin; swelling of the face, mouth, lips, throat, or tongue; fever; hoarseness; difficulty breathing or swallowing), and severe, persistent irritation at the application site.

 

• Missed Dose

What if I forget to take a dose of Zithranol?

If you forget your scheduled application of Zithranol, use it as soon as you remember and are able. However, if it is almost time for the next scheduled dose, skip the missed one and resume the regular schedule. Do not increase the amount used or change the regimen to make up for one that was missed.

How do I store Zithranol?

Keep Zithranol tightly sealed in its original packaging, out of the reach of children and away from extremes of temperature and humidity. Do not allow the contents to freeze. Dispose of any unused or expired medication according to the instructions of your pharmacist.
