"NEU: ANTI-SCHUPPEN SHAMPOO
Mit 3,5% Azol-Aktiv Depot
Bekämpft Schuppen wirksam und nachhaltig"
I got absolutely nowhere when asking this question before, but sometimes when this happens, asking it a second time does the trick. So I'm hoping that will be the case.
Please, if you propose an answer, DO NOT, repeat, DO NOT use the word "depot" anywhere in it! Unless you can make an extremely convincing case for it. For instance, if you go to your bathroom and check out your English-language shampoo bottles, and discover that the word "depot" is actually used on one or more of them, I will perhaps then accept the validity of this term in a shampoo context.
Until then, my conviction remains firm that depot is utterly inappropriate in a shampoo context. If you pick up a shampoo bottle in the pharmacy, supermarket or wherever, and see something like "azole-active depot" on it, wouldn't you be scratching your head, as it were?
At the moment, I'm leaning towards something like "Contains 3.5% active azole", but I'm not a chemist and for all I know, that might mean something different to what the German is saying.
TIA for your help. And remember, DON'T use "depot" in your answer unless you can justify it very convincingly.

active azole reservoir
OK- I was thinking again about depot and what it means. It creates a store or build-up of the active ingredient in the hair. Reservoir is a good synonym that is friendlier to the English speaker's ear (in my humble opinion anyway)!!
I will look for we references.

: Reservoir is definitely used in skincare (moisture reservoir), or maybe something could also be done with the word storage:Personally, I thought the time release suggestion for your last question made sense because that's what it meant.

with 3.5% azole active content
Voriconazole is a new triazole active orally and parenterally that recently proved effective in the treatment of invasive aspergillosis and in empirical antifungal therapy for persistently febrile neutropenic patients.

: Makes sense, because that's what it is saying. (Although at the risk of being perceived as an Azole Reservoir Dog, I refer to LS Fachdico Medizin: Depot n [Physiol, Pharm] deposit, depot)

Head & Shoulders:

Ingredients:
Aqua, Ammonium Laureth Sulfate, Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate, Dimethicone, Sodium Chloride, Glycol Distearate, Zinc Pyrithione, Cetyl Alcohol, Parfum, Cocamide MEA, Polyquaternium-10, Sodium Citrate, DMDM Hydantoin, Hydrogenated Polydecene, Sodium Benzoate, Trimethylolpropane Tricaprylate/Tricaprate, Citric Acid, Ammonium Xylenesulfonate, Tetrasodium EDTA, Sodium Polynaphthalenesulfonate, Benzyl Alchohol, Methylchloroisolthiazolinone, Methylisothiaxolinone, CI 42090, CI 60730.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not a Depot in sight - but nothing else that means anything to me either.
zinc pyrithione-based has me scratching my head (and no, I haven't got dandruff).
If Depot is some kind of chemical/ingredient .. does it have to be understood?
Maybe ask your client?

btw - if you put Depot into DicData - there is an entry that suggests it could mean \'long-lasting\'.... long-lasting active azole ... long-lasting effect

[3.5% ]active azole ingredient with depot effect
Hi Rowan, I understand your obsession- we seem to be kindred spirits in that way;))
I this time, I googled for azole+ depot+absorption, and found the description below. While discussing the properties of Fentanyl, azole is mentioned further down in the article.
Main thing, English scientists do indeed speak of
'depots' that are formed and that release the active ingredient.
Absorption of fentanyl ***from the depot in the skin*** continues after removal of the transdermal system {01} {03} {09} {18} . When application sites are rotated, continued absorption prevents plasma concentrations from decreasing to subtherapeutic values while another depot is forming below the new application site.
http://www.drugs.com/MMX/Fentanyl_Transdermal_Systemic_.html
Next, I checked for shampoo+depot+effect, and found this description of preparation( not azole-containing, but a medicated shampoo nevertheless):
Terbinafine persists in the body for some time after dosing has ended and this ***'depot' effect*** may explain why courses of treatment with terbinafine are reported to be shorter than with other agents.
http://www.dotpharmacy.co.uk/upscalp.html
Finally, active+azole+ ingredient brought me here:
The copper ions form a complex with the active azole ingredient in the OSP chemistry and actually helps to promote film growth. ...
www.electrochemicals.com/glicoatart.pdf
another hit:
Repeated application results in a ***cumulative depot effect*** in the skin, which may lead to a prolonged duration of action and increased systemic absorption. Fluocinolone metabolized primarily in the liver and excreted by the kidneys. Some of the topical corticosteroids and their metabolites are also excreted into the bile.

Discussion
"Mit dem 3,5% Azol-Aktiv-Depot, einem neuen Wirkstoffkomplex aus Climbazol, Octopirox und Polidocanol, bek�mpft das neue ABC ANTI-SCHUPPEN SHAMPOO klinisch bewiesen nachhaltig Schuppen"
And there's a reference to an "Aktiv-Depot":
"Climbazol wird von den Haaren aufgenommen und bildet bis zur n�chsten Haarw�sche ein ***Aktiv-Depot*** zur Bek�mpfung von Hefepilzen. In Kombination mit Octopirox wird dadurch die Neubildung von Schuppen wirksam und nachhaltig bek�mpft".
Does this inspire anyone afresh? Suddenly I'm less sure about "content" for "Depot", but there's still no way I'm prepared to use depot. Beginning to wonder about "deposit".
Currently leaning to the "content" suggested by the first asker, unless someone can provide sound proof that this is not correct. But it makes much better sense than "depot", that's for sure!
