FAQ Section

1. What is Mediceuticals Therapeutic Rinse and what does it do?
Therapeutic Rinse is a multi-functional scalp and hair treatment conditioner that soothes, calms, and restores balance to sensitive, dry, tight, flaky, or irritated scalps . It helps control flaking, reduces itching and redness, detangles hair gently, and restores the scalp's natural pH and moisture balance .

2. Is this a medicated product?
Yes, Therapeutic Rinse is classified as an OTC (over-the-counter) anti-dandruff and anti-seborrheic treatment . It contains Pyrithione Zinc (0.5% or 1% depending on formulation), an active ingredient clinically proven to prevent recurrence of flaking and itching associated with dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis .

3. Who is this product specifically for?
This rinse is ideal for individuals with:

• Sensitive, dry, or tight scalps 

• Flaking, itching, or irritated scalps 

• Dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis 

• Redness or inflammation of the scalp

• Uncomfortable, "angry" scalps needing relief 

It is suitable for all hair types and safe for color-treated hair .

5. How do I use Therapeutic Rinse?

1. Cleanse: Wash hair and scalp with an appropriate Mediceuticals shampoo (such as X-Folate, Solv-X, or X-Derma depending on your scalp type) 

2. Apply: Towel-dry hair, then apply Therapeutic Rinse evenly to the scalp and hair 

3. Wait: Leave on for 2-3 minutes. You will feel a cooling, refreshing sensation—this is normal 

4. Rinse: Rinse thoroughly with warm water

For best results, use daily or every time you shampoo until your condition is under control . After improvement, you can reduce frequency as needed. For maximum control, use it consistently with every wash .

7. Is this product safe for color-treated hair?
Yes. Mediceuticals products contain a Colour Retention Complex that helps protect colored hair against UV radiation and "shampoo washout," resulting in vibrant, long-lasting color results . It is considered safe for use on color-treated hair .
