Dandura Shampoo is for external use only. Use it in the exact dose and duration advised by your doctor. Read the instructions thoroughly before using the medicine. Do not use it more than the recommended dose. Continue using for as long as the doctor has prescribed. Avoid direct contact with your eyes. In the case of accidental contact, rinse it off thoroughly with cold water.
