Hello,
Thank you for writing to HCM
For dandruff:
I advice you to use arcolane shampoo. Use it thrice a week for 1 month, then use it twice a week for next two months.
Do not apply oil as it may aggravate the symptoms.
For pimples:
Use c.doxycycline daily once for 1 month.
Use cetaphil face wash twice daily. Apply clindamycin gel daily morning for the entire face.
Apply benzyl peroxide 2.5% daily night be for going to bed.
Drink lemon juice daily.
Avoid chocolates, oily food and fried food.
Regards.
