Read the Patient Information Leaflet if available from your pharmacist before you start using anthralin shampoo and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

This medication is for use on the scalp as directed by your doctor, usually 3 to 4 times a week. Wet hair, then massage anthralin shampoo onto scalp. Work into a gentle lather and leave on the scalp for 3 to 5 minutes. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Avoid contact with eyes. Although no additional shampoo is necessary to cleanse the hair, a non-medicated shampoo or conditioner can be applied after using anthralin shampoo, if desired.

Use this product regularly to get the most benefit from it. Tell your doctor if your condition does not improve or if it worsens.
Temporary redness or irritation of the treated scalp may occur. If either of these effects persists or worsens, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly.

Temporary staining of hair or skin may occur. To lessen the chance of staining, apply carefully only on the scalp, avoiding your face. Try to avoid getting anthralin shampoo on fabrics since permanent staining may occur.
