When experiencing a flare-up after using a particular shampoo, it's important to note that what works for one person may trigger symptoms in another. Some shampoo ingredients can cause irritation, especially if they contain alcohol or fragrances.

For medicated shampoos, look for these beneficial ingredients:
• Salicylic acid
• Selenium sulfide
• Zinc pyrithione
• Ketoconazole Before trying any new product, including "Scalp Relief," consider these tips:
• Use cool or warm water instead of hot when washing
• Choose alcohol-free and fragrance-free products
• Consult with your dermatologist about which products are best for your specific case
• Consider a patch test before using any new product to check for sensitivity

If you're experiencing ongoing flare-ups, it's worth discussing with your healthcare provider to adjust your treatment plan.
