About Biokez-Ad Lotion

Fungal infection is a skin disease in which a fungus attacks the tissue and causes infection. Dandruff is a scalp condition characterized by dry, itchy, white flakes of skin on the scalp. 

Biokez-Ad Lotion is a combination of two drugs, namely: Cetrimide (antiseptic) and Ketoconazole (antifungal).
