Medicine for dundruff?

Selenium sulfide: Try a shampoo with selenium sulfide. Over the counter strengths are usually 1%. Lather your scalp for 5 minutes then rinse out. I don't like to follow with conditioner as it may wash the medicine out of your scalp. If this doesn't help, your dr may write a prescription for the stronger 2.5% selenium sulfide shampoo. Use this the same way.

Dandruff: First try over the counter Selsum blue. This works miracles. Use it twice a day for about two weeks.
