I'm not one to moan.... as you all know ;)

But I'm not a happy bunny and don't like what they did to Nizoral shampoo :mad:

I do take to the water a fair bit and pick up the odd skin infection on my head from all the nasty's in the water. In the past I just pop down Boots and got a bottle of Nizoral for about £6.

And it looked like this:

Well you'd think it was just new packaging but its not. In the past it was 2% Ketoconazole and this new Nizoral isn't.

Ketoconazole is an antifungal medicine. It's used to treat skin infections caused by a fungus (yeast). It can also prevent them coming back.

So I pick up a bottle of Boots own brand stuff for a fiver and its not the same.

So I've been force to buy a bottle of Ketocip online.

In the past week I've spend about £30 trying out new shampoo just cos one company decided to "alter" there product so they can sell more !!
If you had a good product like the old Nizoral why change it? Once people find out it wont work they wont buy it.

Manufacturers are constantly changing their products and it's hard to understand why. Presumably they have found a way to make it with cheaper ingredients.
