Question: Hello, I'm a 27 yr old female, suffering from scalp infection, my hair gets oily within a day or two of washing it, and I have a itchy scalp with pus filled pimples on scalp sometimes. I have consulted with dermatologist before and used FARBION, ADGAIN AND OSMEGA3 tablets as I also suffer hair loss, and want to regrow my hair. But these tablets are no longer available in my city, would you please prescribe any alternate medicines that are better and also any GOOD shampoo for my hair condition? Thank you for your time and effort.

Brief Answer:
Regarding hair and scalp

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You seem to have seborrheic dermatitis with scalp folliculitis. I suggest you to use ketoconazole based shampoo e.g Scalpe Shampoo or Nizral Shampoo. In addition I suggest you to take Cap. Doxycycline 100mg, twice daily for a few days. For hair fall I suggest you to take Tab. Revilus once a day along Cap. Antoxid HC once daily as alternatives to your previous medicines.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you need any more assistance.
