DEC: hypersensitivity risk in the risk management plan for ketoconazole and zinc pyrithione shampoo

What it means for practice

Consider hypersensitivity an important identified risk. The plan also identifies missing safety information for use in children, pregnant women and breastfeeding women.

Summary

The description available through the DEC link concerns the risk management plan for Dermazol Plus, a shampoo containing ketoconazole and zinc pyrithione. It describes use for treating and preventing fungal infections of the scalp.

Key safety points

Hypersensitivity reactions are listed among the important identified risks. The plan includes routine risk minimization measures, but the available description does not detail those measures. It provides no frequency, severity or case counts for hypersensitivity reactions.

Missing information and further studies

Missing safety information concerns use in children, pregnant women and breastfeeding women. According to the description, the safety information is consistent with existing data; no additional post-registration studies are planned.

The available description reports no specific DEC decision to change the product information or introduce new restrictions. Details of risk minimization measures require verification against the original document.
