    Nizoral seems to have stopped working for me

    The fungus has become immune I guess. Which anti-dandruff shampoo should I switch to?

    Nizoral never worked for me when I was using it.

    I used for about 4 months straight before dropping it. Don't know how long it takes to see any results or if it's supposed to stop hair loss. But my hair is doing good without it right now.

      My dermatologist recommend I use Selsun Blue for anti-dandruff shampoo and seborric dermatitis, she thought I had dandruff on my scalp but it was just residue from Kirkland's minoxidil. People don't like using it because supposedly Selenium Sulfide causes hair loss but I have been use it for 2 months, twice a week with no hair loss.

          It used to work like magic for me. Any success with other anti-dandruff shampoos besides selsun blue?

          I have the 2% already.

            Well I did a quick google search for you, for best anti-dandruff shampoo. And I hate to break it to you, but you already used the two best anti-dandruff shampoos, Nizoral and Selsun Blue, according to top 10 lists, yahoo answers, ratings, etc.

            So I don't know, what exactly are you looking for. What kind of condition do you have? I would advise you to go a dermatologist if you haven't already.

            Also, have you tried Neutrogena T-Gel Shampoo?



            I think i'm going to buy that one or just switch to another Selsun Blue. Because the Selsun Blue I have "Medicated Treatment" really smells bad, but it does work, for my minoxidil residue at least. Don't have dandruff problems.

            I also read the Jason brand makes good anti dandruff shampoos.

              There isn't a shampoo under the sun that I haven't used but they're all useless garbage. I haven't lived even one day without dandruff for the past 25 years or so. Not sure what else to do.

                This is a little weird, Nizoral works for me on and off. My dandruff comes and goes and there are times Nizoral does magic and other times where it doesn't do jack.

                  How do you typically use it?
