What Are The Side Effects Of Ketopine Shampoo And Daktacort Ointment?

Hi doctor iam a woman of the age of sixty, I have developed hair loss of two lines going to the back of my head. It s like there are two shades opened and on top at the back of my head there is a big round bold . The other part started like a ring worm at the age of five and it wasn t treated up to now. Three years back i started having itching scalp as it itches it was getin swollen the skin and having like rash. If it starts itching I would scratch like I can pull all my hair off the skin. I went to see my doctor she gave me ketopine shampoo and daktacort ointment but it didn t work for me then I went back and she gave me betacap and the itching stopped but would my hair grow and what are the side effects. Help me please I can t walk with my head not covered.

by your history it is clear that you may be having fungal infection of hair in scalp. only topical treatment will not work, you need to take oral antifungal medications. ask your dermatologist for that and get treated with that.

as such ketopine shampoo causes a mild hair loss, daktacort doesn't cause hair loss
thank you
