I am an 18 year old female having a lot of dandruff, one of my cousin suggested me to use the "ketoconazole 2% scalp solution - Arcolane" is it safe for me to use this or are there any better and more efficient remedies. Also can dandruff cause outbreaks on the forehead and blackheads on the cheek? Looking forward to your answer. Thank You.
