How Lucoz ZS Shampoo works

Lucoz ZS Anti-Dandruff Shampoo is a combination of three medicines : Luliconazole, Salicylic Acid, and Zinc pyrithione. Luliconazole and Zinc pyrithione are antifungal medications that treat fungal infections. Luliconazole works by killing the fungi on the skin by destroying their cell membrane. Zinc pyrithione makes fungal cells to absorb copper which in turn inactivates protein mechanisms in cells. This is how it stops fungal growth. Salicylic Acid is a keratolytic medication. It reduces oil production in the skin, replenishes the skin, and it also keeps your pores open.
