bond007,

I don't have direct experience with Nizoral for dandruff but it has an excellent reputation. However, the active ingredient in Nizoral is ketoconazole. If you've already used a similar product with no success then Nizoral may not work either.

bond007,

You could also start by trying something more simple like Head and Shoulders dandruff shampoo. Nizoral anti-inflammatory, as Dave already suggested, is more potent and may do the job. But because it's harsh on the hair and scalp, you should really only use Nizoral a couple times weekly.

If you still feel your dandruff isn't under control after trying a few over the counter dandruff related shampoos and treatments, I recommend consulting a dermatologist who can prescribe something with a little more kick.

Best of luck,

Bill

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?
