Dont think so and that might cause more irritation to your scalp. It works good paired with minoxidil tho

no.

ketaconazole
mct oil with c8 c10
itraconazole
a lice comb

are your only options

Most Dandruff is caused by a mix of Seborrheic dermatitis (an overgrowth reaction to Malassezia yeast) and/or oily scalp/ inflammation
Tretinoin doesn't target either and makes your scalp more sensitive to oil and inflammation, so it won't reduce dandruff and makes it worse

to stop dandruff, try to look for shampoos with
Ketoconazole (very effective for most dandruff)
Zinc pyrithione
Selenium sulfide
Salicylic acid (helps, but doesn’t fix the cause)

Mark as solution by pressing the green checkmark
