Question: Hi, I have a query related to dandruff in my hair.

I want to understand if I can use "ketoconazole shampoo" to relieve it (ex: https://amzn.in/d/0Ytbro3)

I see large amount of dandruff stick to comb, also fall down in flakes every time I comb my hair. I have a wet scalp.

Please help me in understanding this.
