Hello and welcome to healthcaremagic
Brevoxyl creamy wash contains 4% benzoyl peroxide as a creamy wash. It is antibacterial and keratolytic, therefore useful for acne and oily skin.
It can sometimes cause irritation and excessive dryness, however if used as recommended, it is well tolerated and effective.
Dandruff is a very common cause for scalp itching and increased hair shedding. Ketoconazole(Scalpe lotion) is antifungal and antiseborrheic, therefore works really well in controlling dandruff. You may use it thrice weekly for 2-4 weeks and once you dandruff is well controlled, you may taper down its use to once or twice weekly for maintenance.
Controlling dandruff would improve your hair fall too. Hautvit is essentially a biotin supplement and considered to be good for hair.
take care
