We use telemedicine technology to connect you with a U.S. licensed doctor or nurse practitioner to provide dandruff treatment conveniently and affordably.

It starts with your online visit. Your healthcare professional needs to know about your general health and how dandruff affects you.

They also need an unedited photo of you and your ID (that shows your picture and birthdate) so they know who they will be helping. A photo is also helpful to confirm the diagnosis. They review everything, determine if you're a candidate for telemedicine and if treatment is right for you. If so, they will send you a personalized treatment plan.

The treatment plan will include information about dandruff. It is important that you take the time to read it all to be informed and better prepared to manage your condition.

If you qualify, your doctor or nurse practitioner will prescribe the right course of treatment to help you take control of your dandruff.

If appropriate, a doctor or nurse practitioner will prescribe a blended shampoo containing ciclopirox as its main active ingredient. Ciclopirox is an antifungal agent and one of the most effective ingredients for clearing dandruff, according to high quality scientific evidence. For information on safety and side effect, please see Important Safety Information.

The prescription dandruff shampoo that may be prescribed to you can be made with ingredients hand selected by our board-certified dermatologist. These ingredients may include ciclopirox, zinc pyrithione, salicylic acid, tea tree and peppermint oil, glycerin, calcium pantothenate (vitamin B5), and a shampoo base. There will not be any parabens, sulfates, phosphates, or dyes in your shampoo.

When used as directed, many people start seeing improvement in symptoms (dandruff flakes and itching) after just a few uses (1-2 weeks) with ciclopirox shampoos, and others might see improvement within 2-4 weeks. If you don't think the treatment is working, you can reach out to your provider at any time to talk about your treatment plan.

Sometimes scalp flakes are caused by an underlying skin condition other than simple dandruff, so if you don't think the treatment is adequately treating your symptoms, contact your provider at any time to discuss your treatment plan.
