Pyrithione zinc (1%)

Also-called: Pyrithione zinc | Function: Preservative, Anti-dandruff

Pyrithione zinc, also known as zinc pyrithione, is a compound of zinc and pyrithione. It acts as a broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent, preventing the growth of fungi and bacteria. It has long been used to treat dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis and is commonly found in dandruff shampoos.

Zinc pyrithione works by interfering with the utilization of nutrients by Malassezia, a fungus that can overgrow and cause various skin conditions such as dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, tinea versicolor, and fungal acne. By inhibiting the growth of Malassezia, zinc pyrithione can help improve these conditions.
