What Is Neutrogena T/Gel Scalp Relief Shampoo Used For?

Neutrogena T/Gel is used to treat itchy, flaky scalp disorders, including dandruff, seborrhoeic dermatitis, and scalp psoriasis. Its coal tar extract works by slowing down excessive skin cell shedding and reducing inflammation, helping to relieve persistent itching and flaking.

Suitable for adults and children aged 12+.

Do not use if you:

  • Are allergic to coal tar or any ingredient listed

How to Use Neutrogena T/Gel Shampoo

  1. Wet hair and apply a generous amount of shampoo.
  2. Massage into the scalp to form a rich lather.

  4. Rinse thoroughly and repeat once more.

Use 2–3 times weekly for approximately 6 weeks. Stop if irritation occurs.
