The PHARMACIST talks about …
Dandruff
Dandruff is itchy, annoying and persistent. Most skin specialists agree that it is associated with a tiny fungus called Pityrosporum Ovale.
The fungus lives on our bodies all the time, usually without causing a problem, but unfortunately for some it can increase in numbers and lead to dandruff.
Anti-dandruff shampoo's are effective against this fungus, and it is recommended that you use shampoos and conditioners that are pH balanced for in between washes to maintain a healthy scalp.
