Nizoral 2% is a prescription medication in the U.S. In Canada, however, it can be purchased OTC.

Nizoral 1% is available OTC in the U.S. and many users report similar results with that as with the 2% so that may be an option for you if getting a prescription for it is difficult or until you get the prescription.

Not that I have encountered in well over a year of use. I use it 3x per week and leave it on for ~5 minutes at a time. No problems as of yet.

If it looks like this (Nizoral AD):



then you have Nizoral 1%. It is carried in drug stores such as Walgreens, Rite-Aid, Eckerd's, CVS, etc.
