Sebowash Shampoo 0.01 (60 mL)

Sebowash Shampoo 0.01 (60 mL) is a medicated shampoo containing fluocinolone acetonide, a corticosteroid used on the scalp. Each 60 mL bottle provides fluocinolone acetonide 0.01% in shampoo form, and it is used to calm inflammation, itching, redness, and flaking from steroid-responsive scalp conditions. It is typically prescribed for scalp dermatitis, eczema, or psoriasis when a doctor wants a gentle anti-inflammatory treatment that can be applied directly to the scalp.

How it works: Fluocinolone acetonide works by reducing the release of inflammatory substances in the skin. In shampoo form, it is applied to the scalp so the medicine can help relieve itching, redness, and scaling where the inflammation is occurring.

Sebowash Shampoo 0.01 (60 mL) is a low-strength fluocinolone acetonide shampoo, which makes it suitable for treating scalp inflammation without the higher skin-thinning risk seen with stronger steroid products. Because it is a shampoo, it is designed for short contact with the scalp during washing, and a doctor may choose this form when a patient needs localized treatment and a wash-off option rather than a leave-on lotion or solution.

• Scalp psoriasis
• Seborrheic dermatitis
• Scalp eczema
• Itchy, inflamed scalp conditions responsive to corticosteroids

• Wet the scalp and hair, then apply Sebowash Shampoo 0.01 to the affected areas as directed by your doctor.
• Massage the shampoo gently into the scalp and leave it on for the prescribed contact time before rinsing.
• Rinse the hair and scalp thoroughly with water after use.
• Wash your hands after applying unless your hands are the treated area.
• Use only the amount and frequency prescribed; do not apply it more often than instructed.
• Avoid getting the shampoo in your eyes, nose, mouth, or on broken skin unless your doctor specifically tells you to.

Each bottle of Sebowash Shampoo 0.01 contains 60 mL of shampoo, not a measured daily dose in milligrams. How often it is used is determined by the prescriber, and patients are usually told to use only a thin layer or the minimum amount needed on the scalp, with no more than the directed frequency per day or week. Your doctor decides the exact schedule based on the scalp condition and how you respond to treatment.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Fluocinolone Acetonide may include:

• Temporary burning or stinging on the scalp
• Itching or irritation where applied
• Dry scalp or dry hair
• Redness at the application site
• Folliculitis or small scalp pimples
• Hair texture changes with repeated use

• Use only on the scalp as directed; do not use on the face, groin, or underarms unless specifically prescribed.
• Do not cover the treated area with tight dressings or wraps unless your doctor instructs you to.
• Longer or more frequent use can increase the risk of skin thinning and steroid side effects.
• Tell your doctor if you have a scalp infection, because a corticosteroid can worsen untreated infections.
• Use caution if you are treating a child, since children may absorb topical steroids more easily.
• Do not use this shampoo in the eyes; rinse well if accidental contact occurs.
• Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before starting treatment.

• Other topical corticosteroids applied to the same area
• Topical products that can irritate the scalp, such as harsh medicated shampoos or alcohol-based scalp treatments
• Occlusive scalp coverings or products that increase absorption
• Other steroid medicines by mouth, injection, or inhalation if used long term

Store Sebowash Shampoo 0.01 at room temperature, tightly closed, and keep the bottle away from excessive heat and out of reach of children.
