Rising Preference for Piroctone Olamine over Ketoconazole and Zinc Pyrithione

Dandruff, or pityriasis capitis, is a chronic scalp condition caused by fungus Malasseziaglobosa, and it is characterized by scaling, itching, or redness. Hence, shampoos comprising antifungal agents are preferably used to combat this condition. Traditionally, ketoconazole and zinc pyrithione are two identified compounds that are used in the formulation of anti-dandruff shampoos. With time, the use of piroctone olamine has become more prevalent. In several controlled clinical trials conducted by various researchers, piroctone olamine has been proven to be superior to ketoconazole and zinc pyrithione. A study undertaken by NCBI  compared these three ingredients and observed that the use of Piroctone olamine helps to reduce the hair fall by 16.5%, improves hair shaft diameter by 7.9%, and significantly decreases the production of sebum in the scalp.. In other study conducted by SpecKare, compared two shampoo types—one of with piroctone olamine (0.75%) mixed with salicylic acid (2%) and other including zinc pyrithione (1%) as active ingredient. The results of the study show that while ZPT (Zinc Pyrithione) reduced dandruff by 68.6%, and the active ingredient piroctone olamine reduced the dandruff problem by 81.7%. On the similar grounds, the use of piroctone olamine also outperformed climbazole. Additionally, piroctone olamine has been extensively in use in several personal care products for more than 30 years owing to its properties such as minimal toxicity, better solubility, and compounding characteristics. Hence, the greater demand for piroctone olamine than ketoconazole, climbazole, and zinc pyrithione  drives the market for the same.
