    You may be oversimplifying.
    How do you expect to ensure the product works?  It is not sufficient to formulate with an active - enough active has to be deposited with enough coverage to be effective.
    Assume you’re not in the US.

    Yes, I think I get it… I must be looking for coarcevation instead of solution, right? Thanks so much. I’ll try to do that instead.

    Deposition is the objective - from solution or suspension.  Do not know why a solution is required to achieve a homogenous product.

    I don’t mind if my formula is cloudy. I just want piroctone olamine to be well mixed and homogenous in my shampoo.

    As the objective is to deposit the stuff on the scalp - are you sure you want a solution?

    @PhilGeis if it is a leave on scalp product, does it matter if Piroctone Olamine or another active is in solution form? 

    It is not a leave on product… it is a shampoo.

    I want an homogenous shampoo.
