Pharmlitalia Psoriasis Shampoo for Dry & Itchy Scalp – 3% Salicylic Acid, Manuka Honey (2-Pack, 6.76 fl oz)

Pharmlitalia Psoriasis Shampoo is a targeted scalp treatment that combines 3% salicylic acid with Manuka honey to exfoliate flakes, calm irritation, and gently cleanse dry, itchy scalps.

This shampoo was formulated for people dealing with persistent scalp build-up, visible flakes, and frequent itching. The blend focuses on loosening dead skin, reducing visible scaling and residue, and improving scalp condition without over-drying hair. It’s designed to help restore a balanced scalp environment so hair looks cleaner, feels softer, and styling is easier.

How does this shampoo remove flakes and buildup?

The 3% salicylic acid acts as a keratolytic exfoliant to help dissolve the bonds between dead skin cells and the scalp surface. Regular use assists in loosening stubborn scales so they rinse away during washing, while the cleansing base removes oil and debris for a clearer scalp.

• 3% salicylic acid to break up flakes
• Deep-cleansing action removes excess oil and residue
• Formulated to rinse flakes away without harsh scrubbing

Will it soothe itch and visible irritation?

Manuka honey and gentle emollients are included to calm and hydrate dry, irritated skin on the scalp. The formula aims to reduce sensations of tightness and itching while supporting a smoother scalp surface over multiple uses.

• Manuka honey for hydration and skin comfort
• Soothing emollients reduce tightness and dryness
• Non-stripping cleansing preserves scalp moisture balance

Is this shampoo suitable for other scalp issues like seborrheic dermatitis or folliculitis?

The product’s exfoliating and cleansing properties help address excess oil, flakes, and clogged follicles that appear with seborrheic dermatitis and folliculitis. It supports clearer pores and reduces the surface conditions that contribute to visible flakes and breakouts.

• Cleanses follicles to reduce buildup and pore congestion
• Helps control oil and surface scaling associated with seborrheic conditions
• May complement other treatments for targeted scalp concerns

How should I use this shampoo for best results?

Apply to wet hair, lather gently, and leave on the scalp for a short period before rinsing to allow the salicylic acid to work on flakes. Use as directed on the package; frequency can depend on scalp condition and tolerance to exfoliating acids.

• Wet hair thoroughly and massage into scalp
• Allow a brief dwell time to help dissolve flakes, then rinse
• Follow with a nourishing conditioner if desired to maintain hair softness

Who is this for: Pharmlitalia Psoriasis Shampoo is aimed at people experiencing persistent scalp scaling, dryness, itching, or oily buildup—those seeking a stronger over-the-counter exfoliating shampoo rather than a daily mild cleanser. It’s also suitable for individuals managing recurring flaky conditions such as seborrheic dermatitis or scalp acne who want to combine exfoliation with soothing hydration. If you have a sensitive scalp or are using prescription scalp medications, check with a healthcare provider before switching products to ensure compatibility.
