Hello Eric,

Welcome to healthcare magic.

I understand from your query that you are having hair fall and dandruff.

Your hair fall could be androgenetic alopecia which is the most common type seen in men. We have US FDA approved medications like minoxidil and finasteride for it but you need to take it for a long time as we cannot cure the genetic problem but can halt the process.

Arcolane is a good shampoo for dandruff. Use it on alternate days for 2-3 weeks and then maintain the effect by using it once a week.

Hope this helps you.

Tae care.
