HI,

I can understand your concern for the itching, hair fall and acne caused by dandruff in hair.

I guide my patients to wash twice in a single bath. It means apply the shampoo for two times in a single bath and do a good gentle massage by your fingers for around 2 minutes and then wash it off. By doing so for around 7 days you will get good benefit.

-If the dandruff is too high then you can use any medicated shampoo containing Ketoconazole in it.

-You can take a tablet containing Acetylcysteine, Calcium Pantothenate, Selenium, Zinc, Biotin, Copper as active ingredients. You can take these vitamins in the form of biotin, calicium pantothenate and other vitamin B complexes.

Additionally increase you protein intake on daily basis and eat sprouts. Eat a lot of green leafy vegetables and sprouts which contains vitamins and minerals necessary for normal hair function.

Take care.
