Start using an antifungal shampoo everyday for first week and then reduce the application to twice a week for maintenance. Sometimes a longer contact time for the shampoo on the scalp is warranted for the medications in the shampoo to act. This should solve your problem. However if problem persists, consult a Dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment plans
Next Steps
You can stop the oral drug.
