Dandruff, Itching Problem. Treated With Flucos Forte, Canestan Lotion. Used Mintop For Hairfall, Problems Reappeared. Solution?

Hi doctor.
I have been suffering from dandruff and itching for a few years now. Last year my doctor prescribed me flucos forte and canestan lotion to treat it. It worked fine. But nowadays im experiencing hairfall also. Was thinking of using mintop 2% solution. I applied it one night but next morning saw that dandruff had reappeared and scalp was itching again. Please help!! Im scared to use it furthur.
Can i use mintop and those antifungal lotions simultaneously?? If not, how should i take care of my hairfall problem

Hi, the causes of hair fall could be the dandruff, anemia, anxiety, malnutrition etc.
Probably mintop is allergic to you, so i advise you to avoid as for as possible, and if some doctor prescribes also tell him that you may be allergic to it.
take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and proteine rich foods, besides anti fungal medicines. Thank you.
