Hi ,
Welcome to HCM.
Thanks for writing in.
Dandruff can be due to seborrheic dermatitis or psoriasis.
Try sebowash shampoo thrice a week with Zydip C lotion at night time.
Psoriasis of scalp can cause severe scaling and needs potent drugs to suppress it.
Consult a qualified dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.
Hope this helps.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
