Home Remedies. Applying over-the-counter dandruff shampoos to the skin, for about 10 minutes a day while in the shower, can be a useful home remedy. Ask your doctor if this might help you. Other home remedies are sometimes suggested, such as aloe vera, tea tree oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, olive oil, and beeswax.

Hi. Any medicine containing salicylic acid should only be taken after getting a prescription for it by a certified dermatologist. Avoid using the lotion for now and just use a ketoconazole shampoo for the time being 2-3 times every week. If there is still purging after couple weeks then get yourself checked by a dermatologist or seek an online consultation with us.
