You likely have Seborrhea of the Scalp and have to shampoo MORE frequently i.e. daily

There is a yeast called Malassezia which feeds off the excessive oil production causing dandruff. Clearing it regularly is the solution.

Get a few different anti - dandruff shampoos and rotate them. Good ones: Sebcur-T, Nizoral, Selsun Blue, Head & Shoulders

This will get it under much better control

Good luck

This is exactly right. Get a bunch of anti-dandruff shampoos that each use a different medication and rotate them regularly (I use each shampoo twice then onto the next).

I have four in my rotation using Zinc Pyrithione, Salicylic Acid, Selenium Sulfide and Tar.

If you want some more info I found this really helpful.

I have already tried head and shoulders and selsun blue but there was no effect.
Maybe i will check for a nizoral type of shampoo, but as im not in the US i will have to ask
for ketoconazole shampoo right?
