DHS Salicylic Acid Shampoo for Psoriasis & Dandruff — 4 oz, 3% Salicylic Acid, Fragrance-Free

DHS SAL Shampoo is a fragrance-free, salicylic-acid medicated shampoo formulated to reduce flaking, control oil, and help manage symptoms of psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, eczema, and dandruff.

Designed for scalps that need therapeutic care, this 4 oz bottle contains 3% salicylic acid to soften and loosen dry, flaky skin while reducing excess oil. The shampoo is free of parabens and added fragrance, and it’s developed to be used as part of a regular scalp-care routine. It lathers to lift scales and residue, making it easier to rinse away buildup and reveal a calmer scalp and cleaner-feeling hair.

How does DHS SAL Shampoo work on flaky, oily scalps?

The active ingredient, salicylic acid, acts as a keratolytic: it breaks down the bonds that hold dead skin cells together, helping flakes shed more easily. At the same time, the formula helps remove excess oil and surface buildup so the scalp feels cleaner and less irritated after rinsing.

• Contains 3% salicylic acid to soften and loosen dry scales
• Fragrance-free formula minimizes irritation risk
• Helps remove oil, sebum, and residue for clearer scalp surface

How should I use it for the best results?

Wet hair thoroughly, apply a generous amount, and massage into the scalp to form a rich lather. Let the shampoo sit for several minutes before rinsing to allow the salicylic acid to act on flaky areas; repeat if needed for heavy scaling.

• Wet hair, apply, massage into scalp, and lather
• Allow to sit for a few minutes to increase effectiveness
• Rinse well and repeat in cases of thicker scaling or buildup

Is this safe for sensitive skin and daily use?

The fragrance-free, paraben-free composition reduces common irritants, but medicated shampoos can feel drying if overused. Follow label directions and consider alternating with a gentle, moisturizing cleanser if you notice dryness; consult a clinician for frequent or severe symptoms.

• Fragrance-free and paraben-free to limit irritants
• May be drying with excessive use—follow instructions
• Suitable as part of a monitored scalp-care regimen

When will I notice improvement and how to maintain results?

Some users observe reduced flaking and less itching after a few applications, while significant improvement can take several weeks with consistent use. To maintain a clearer scalp, incorporate the shampoo into your routine as directed and address triggers such as heavy styling products or infrequent cleansing.

• Initial relief may appear after a few treatments
• Consistent use helps prevent recurrence of surface buildup
• Pair with scalp-friendly habits for longer-lasting benefits

Who is this for: DHS SAL Shampoo is intended for adults and adolescents seeking a targeted, medicated approach to manage dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis-related scaling, or dry, flaky scalp.
