Ceanel Shampoo

In November 2024, we received the following statement from Derma UK regarding Ceanel Shampoo:

Derma UK is pleased to announce a significant step forward in bringing Ceanel Concentrate medicated shampoo back to market.

Following complex re-development, Ceanel shampoo has now passed all validity and quality tests. This was the time-consuming part that presented many onerous formulation and analytical challenges at a deeply scientific level.

The next step is commencing final stability trials and submitting Ceanel shampoo to the MHRA for assessment and anticipated acceptance.

Derma UK is optimistic that Ceanel will be back on shelves where it belongs in 2025, and remains truly passionate about restoring this legacy product.

Derma UK will continue to provide proactive project updates via the Psoriasis Association, and will be a position to release further information in early 2025.

During this transitional phase, we recommend individuals affected by the unavailability of Ceanel Concentrate medicated shampoo consult their GP or Pharmacist to explore suitable alternatives.
