...Once dandruff comes under control, you can start to use the anti-dandruff
shampoo periodically with your regular shampoo.
If you do not get enough relief from these over-the-counter products, you
should seek a doctor's advice. If the flakes are also present elsewhere, you may
be suffering from any other skin problem like seborrhea dermatitis or psoriasis.
A cytostatic agent reduces the rate of multiplication of cells present in the top
layer of the scalp. Zinc Pyrithione and selenium sulfide are important
ingredients of anti-dandruff shampoos. They are cytostatic agents that prevent
uncontrolled cell multiplication. Use of these materials help reduce dandruff
considerably...

...Restoring the moisture balance is an essential aspect of keeping the scalp
healthy and fighting excessive dandruff.
It should not produce any other irritation to the user and should be devoid of
any major side-effects.
Apart from the anti-dandruff shampoos, there are other products available on
the market that act on dandruff and reduce its effects to a minimum. You need
to apply such products on the scalp for a few hours so they penetrate deeply
and deter the effects of dandruff.
They reach the hair follicles, the seat of the
trouble-causing yeast and neutralize them. This method does not require
regular washing but, if you have a habit to wash your hair daily, it does not
interfere with it either....
