Hi severe dandruff can be seborrhic dermatitis or psoriasis.first rule out them.it can be cured by saliblu shampoo weekly twice or nonskurf lotion applied throughout the night and washed out in the morning by a neutral shampoo like triclenz shampoo.use ketoconazole 200mg od for one week.if there is evidence of psoriasis start coal tar shampoo like konaz-ct shampoo
