What do you mean by a "reversed reaction" to a product? Are you experiencing redness, itching, or other skin irritation after using a treatment for seborrheic dermatitis?

If your skin becomes red and itchy after using seborrheic dermatitis treatments, it's important to talk to your doctor about whether you might have developed a secondary infection or reaction to the product. Some substances can trigger seborrheic dermatitis flare-ups, including:
