Greetings! Firstly improvement takes time and is gradual - there's rarely any 'miracle therapy'! Please see a qualified dermatologist and discuss with him your issues and need for possible change of medications ! if you are already visiting a qualified deramtologist and comfortable with him - do continue to follow up wiht him and understand your treatment plan. Dandruff and hair loss can be a recurrent problem and will need maintenance medication. Warm regards, Dr Govind Suresh Mittal, Bengaluru
