Severe dandruff with itching can be effectively managed using medicated shampoos designed to target fungal causes and soothe the scalp.

🩺 Recommended Treatment

You can try a shampoo containing Ciclopirox 1% and Zinc Pyrithione 1%, such as Cipla 8X Shampoo. These ingredients help reduce fungal growth and slow skin cell production, which clears dandruff and relieves itching. Use it as directed, avoiding contact with eyes, nose, or mouth.

⚠️ Important Precautions

• Use only as prescribed or recommended by a dermatologist.
• Avoid prolonged or excessive use to prevent side effects like irritation or burning.
• If irritation worsens or persists, stop use and consult a dermatologist.
• Inform your doctor if you have conditions like diabetes, HIV, or are pregnant before starting treatment.

🩺 When to See a Doctor

If dandruff and itching do not improve after a few weeks of treatment, or if you notice redness, swelling, or pain, please consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and tailored treatment.
