Alpecin Double Effect Shampoo Information

  • What is Alpecin Double Effect Shampoo?

    Alpecin Double Effect Shampoo is a caffeine-based solution that works quickly to ease itching, inflammation and irritation caused by dandruff, to remove dead, scaling skin and protect the hair roots from hereditary hair loss.

    With daily use Alpecin Double Effect shampoo clears the scalp of dandruff and reduces inflammation of the skin, allowing the hair roots to be penetrated, strengthening the hair and reducing hair loss.

    Alpecin Double Effect Shampoo is for external use only to be used to treat dandruff and hereditary hair loss on the scalp.

    Wet your hair thoroughly and massage the shampoo into your scalp and leave it for 2 minutes before rinsing with water.

    With daily use, Alpecin Double Effect Shampoo works quickly to reduce visible signs of dandruff and significantly reduce associated itching. If you are unsure whether your symptoms are caused by dandruff you should speak to a doctor or pharmacist before using this treatment.

    It may take considerably longer for you to notice improvements to your hereditary hair loss. This is because the roots of the hair need time to regenerate, which can take up to 3 - 4 months.
