5.0 out of 5 stars Hands down the best OTC option, December 23, 2003
I found out about this product several years ago when my doctor gave me the perscription formula for a bout of dandruff. It eventually became available in the non-perscription (1%) formula and for me, on the occasions that I need it the non-perscription formula has worked perfectly.

It is a very nice shampoo, aside from the anti-dandruff properties. It has a tingly (not burning or caustic feel) fresh feeling when you are using it and lathers extreamly well even in the hard water I have at home. After using it my hair has a very clean but not dry feeling.

I will use it from time to time as needed (usually in the fall) and I just had my son use it as well. It worked very well for him too and after the first use, the flakes were pretty much gone. Typically I will use it about a week and than I won't need it anymore. I also try to leave the lather on a few minutes to give it a chance to *work*.

I have to say that if you are in the market for a dandruff shampoo chose this one... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Make your own ketoconazole shampoo during Nizoral shortage & how dandruff shampoos work., August 20, 2011

This review is from: Nizoral Anti-Dandruff Shampoo, 4 oz. (Misc.)
I decided to make my own ketoconazole shampoo because I refuse to pay the price gougers on Amazon. ($109, really?!) My son has severe scalp seborrheic dermatitis due to the rampant hormones of puberty, and our pediatrician recommended Nizoral. I did a literature search to learn the chemistry. See Useful Articles below if you need some juicy bedtime reading ;-)

First, if helpful, here's my layman's understanding of how various anti-dandruff shampoos work (since I had to do all that legwork anyway):

Dandruff in general is accelerated skin cell maturation/shedding cycles (keratinization) and the "disorganized" attachment of lipid droplets to skin cells as they migrate to the outer layer of the scalp, thereby forming itchy flakes. Seborrheic dermatitis is the population explosion of opportunistic Malassezia fungus feasting on increased scalp sebum in addition to the above conditions. There are 7 species of Malassezia, and one in particular loves scalp sebum... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars THE BEST - PERIOD......................!, April 22, 2008
By 
Dj Magic Mike (Burbank, CA USA) - See all my reviews
My head. What was wrong with my head??? I say this because I never had problems with dandruff until my late twenties, when all of a sudden my skin started flaking off when touched. My eyebrows, my scalp, and even my ears! Friends would make fun of my ears and say I have wax in them, but it was really just loose skin flakes.

I gave it some time (a few years) hoping it would pass, trying different washing procedures, shampoos, etc. Basically, anytime I'de go in the shower.. I'de get out, dry.. and my skin would quickly follow with dryness, redness and flakes. It was ugly.

Finally, I get the nerve to see a dermatologist - and I say this because I dont like doctors much. The dermo told me that I needed to treat the problem, sebhoric dermatitis. Gave me a bunch of Neutrogena anti-dandruff samples and what not. I didnt like them and pretty much threw them in the garbage. They looked and smelled very chemically and I dont want that kinda stuff on my body... Read more
