Shampoos that contain active drug ingredients and make therapeutic claims — most commonly anti-dandruff shampoos using zinc pyrithione, selenium sulfide, or coal tar — are regulated by FDA as OTC drugs.

Shampoos containing certain preservatives (such as formaldehyde-releasing agents above threshold levels), prohibited colorants, or undisclosed active drug ingredients are common targets for FDA detention. Importers should obtain full ingredient disclosures and certificates of compliance from manufacturers, particularly for products sourced from markets with different regulatory standards.
