How does Capasal Therapeutic Shampoo work?

Capasal Shampoo contains a combination of coconut oil, coal tar and salicylic acid. The coconut oil and salicylic acid work together to help relieve the itching associated with certain scalp conditions and reduce the hardening, scaling and thickening of the skin. They also soften and lubricate the skin making the formula gentle on the scalp.
