Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to ask a doctor service
For dandruff you need to go for antifungal shampoos containing ciclopirox olamine or ketoconazole twice or thrice in a week.
In case it is severe take oral antifungal like tablet terbinafine 250 mg once daily or capsule itraconazole 100 mg once daily for 3-4 weeks.
Oral anti fungals are prescription drugs and should be taken under the supervision of the doctor.
