Thanks Bill.In my area Nizoral 2%,5%,10% are available.Which one should i try?Twice a week with a gap of 3 day sounds right?
Does the massage with olive and coconut oil help?
I've never heard of Nizoral about 2%. You may want to discuss this with your doctor but from what I understand, 2% is a pretty strong solution.

I personally don't believe that massaging with olive and coconut oils is going to benefit you.

Thanks for the valuable guidance for people like us, through this site

SRS,

You may want to try aloe verb gel. I used it regularly after my second transplant to reduce itching and dryness in the donor and recipient areas.

Hi all!

I have a question (may sound stupid). I had dandruff outbreaks for a long long time. Wasn't anything bad - like extremely itchy or flakes all over the shoulders - no, nothing like that. Just a regular dandruff which I treated with T-Gel or Nizoral and it would go away for like six months. But about a year ago it did not. i tried a lot of stuff - from head and shoulders everyday to baking soda (mixed with water). Tried to cut my hair short, thought that it will help... Long story short i was eating a lot of sweets and than decided to cut back on them and to my amazement dandruff just kinda disappeared (i was and still am using head and shoulders regularly). Is it possible that it is some how connected with me stopping eating lots of sugar?

Thanx in advance
Dave Little
