verywell health is an award-winning resource for the most updated and credible information about health to help you confidently make the best choices for your little bundle of joy and yourself.

Happy Cappy Medicated Shampoo and Body Wash is listed by verywell health experts as one of the 8 best shampoos for seborrheic dermatitis in 2024 to treat flaking, itching, and irritation on the skin and scalp.

It should be noted that the common name given to seborrheic dermatitis when it occurs on the scalp of a baby, is “cradle cap.” Seborrheic dermatitis is caused by yeast also known as a fungus.

The publication explains how stopping the yeast stops the problem. “Zinc pyrithione is an antimicrobial that is often listed as the active ingredient in OTC dandruff shampoos. Because zinc has powerful antifungal properties, it’s good at killing yeast overgrowth.”

Dr. Eddie’s Happy Cappy Medicated Shampoo is a pediatrician-developed and pediatrician-recommended cradle cap shampoo that contains pyrithione zinc as an active ingredient, to fight flaking and scaling associated with seborrheic dermatitis.

This over-the-counter shampoo for seborrheic dermatitis can also be used as a body wash and is safe to be used by kids of all ages, as its formula is free from any skin-irritating chemicals.

See why Verywell Health recommends it as the Best Seborrheic Dermatitis Shampoo for Babies.
