Polytar Scalp Shampoo Coal Tar Solution 4% – A Powerful Solution for Troubled Scalps
Struggling with persistent dandruff, flaky skin, or irritating scalp conditions? Polytar Scalp Shampoo Coal Tar Solution 150ml might be just what your hair care routine has been missing. This medicated shampoo harnesses the therapeutic benefits of 4% coal tar solution, a time-tested treatment used in dermatology for decades to manage scalp problems like psoriasis, seborrhoeic dermatitis, eczema, and chronic dandruff.
What Makes Polytar Effective?
The key lies in its active ingredient: coal tar solution 4% (w/w) — a natural derivative with anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antipruritic (anti-itch), and keratolytic properties. Coal tar helps slow down excessive skin cell growth, break down thickened, scaly patches, and soothe persistent itchiness and irritation. This makes the shampoo particularly useful for people dealing with scalp conditions that cause dryness, redness, flaking, and discomfort.
Unlike ordinary dandruff shampoos that simply clean the hair, Polytar works at the root of the problem — targeting abnormal skin turnover and inflammation to improve scalp health over time.
How to Use for Best Results
Use Polytar once or twice a week (or as directed by your healthcare professional). Begin by wetting your hair, then massage enough shampoo into your scalp to create a rich lather. Let it sit for 3–5 minutes to allow the active ingredients to work before rinsing thoroughly. Repeat the process once for optimal effect.

Safety & Precautions
