Suggest Oral Capsules For Severe Dandruff
I have dandruff on my scalp which is unbearable and which is constantly damaging my hair. I am 35 years old housewife. I prefer swallowing medicinal capsules rather than applying solutions directly to the scalp. Kindly suggest appropriate capsule with dosage. Regards. Mrs. Faqiha Arooj.

Hi i think only capsules may not work in the treatment of severe dandruff.even then use nizral 20 mg tablets twice daily for one week to 10 days can help in the case of severe dandruff.u can also use flucanazole 150 mg weekly once for three months to treat severe dandruff on thw scalp.but maintanence treatment is a must with a antidandruff shampoo to get complete response
