Sodium Myreth Sulfate has a lower-concern editorial label for seborrheic dermatitis within the cosmetic safety context reviewed. It is a cleansing and foaming ingredient, not an antifungal treatment.

No applicable human seb derm or exact-ingredient Malassezia study was found. A reviewed ingredient can still be part of a cleanser that an individual finds drying or uncomfortable, depending on the whole formula and use. Follow rinsing directions, and choose a gentler product if washing consistently causes tightness, burning or increased itch.
