I’d use the scalp oil leaving it in your hair for 4 hours then washing it out, to get rid of the scales. Apple cider vinegar is good but it will burn some with a breakout.
Aloe vera is good to heal the raw skin.

What are some affordable antifungal shampoo options for seborrheic dermatitis available at Walmart?

For budget-friendly antifungal shampoos at Walmart, look for these over-the-counter options:

Shampoos with these active ingredients:
- Ketoconazole 1% (brand name Nizoral)
- Selenium sulfide (Selsun Blue)
- Zinc pyrithione (Head & Shoulders)
- Salicylic acid (Neutrogena T/Sal)
- Coal tar (Neutrogena T/Gel)

These ingredients help control the fungus on your scalp and reduce flaking. Ketoconazole and selenium sulfide are particularly effective antifungal options. Tips for best results:

Let the shampoo sit on your scalp for at least 5 minutes before rinsing to give the active ingredients time to work. You can use these shampoos 2-3 times weekly.

A MySebDermTeam member shared: "I've had success with a 1 percent ketoconazole shampoo you can get over the counter."

Some members find rotating between different shampoos every few weeks brings better results than sticking with just one product.

If over-the-counter options don't help after a few weeks, talk with your doctor about whether you need a prescription-strength version.
