How Can Severe Dandruff Be Treated?

Brief Answer:
Ketoconazole shampoo, clotrimazole and cortisone cream
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for being at HealthcareMagic,
If I were your treating doctor I would recommend you to use Ketoconazole shampoo twice weekly and apply a lotion containing a combination of Clotrimazole and Cortisone on the itchy and scaly areas of the scalp once daily at night for 10-14 days.
Once dandruff reduces you can discontinue the lotion but continue with Ketoconazole shampoo.
Feel free to ask further
