Hi,
Yes, prolident does contain sulfur containing ingredient. One of the active ingredients of prolident potassium monopersulfate - a cleaning and bleaching agent which contains substantial amount of sulfur sufficient enough to cause allergic reactions which are quite similar to those caused by sulfur containing drugs.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
