Selenium sulfide is a topical antifungal and antiseborrheic agent used to treat seborrheic dermatitis, dandruff, tinea versicolor, and atopic dermatitis-associated scaling. It reduces Malassezia yeast colonization through direct antifungal activity while also slowing epidermal cell turnover through its cytostatic effects on keratinocytes. It is available as shampoos and lotions for topical application.
