Can I apply KZ Lotion for my dandruff after I've already oiled my hair? I'm worried if it might affect how the lotion works. What's the best approach?

Safety of Using KZ Lotion for a 16-Year-Old Male

• KZ Lotion (Ketoconazole 2%) is generally safe for teenagers when used as directed. Consult a healthcare provider if unsure.

Additional Tips and Precautions

When to Consult a Doctor

• If adverse reactions occur after using the lotion.
