I have had dandruff for almost 14 years and this is so far the only product that has helped
DISCLAIMER: I can't comment on any lasting effects as I've only used it a few times since I bought it. The few times I've used this product it has cleared all loose flakes out my hair, completely eliminated any itching or inflammation and so far as I can tell cleared most of the dandruff of my actual scalp. So far this is a great product, I hope it fixes my problem but even if it doesn't it's a far better temporary fix than most. Head and Shoulders, Nizoral, Vosene, you name it I've probably tried it and nothing works well for my case. And as a bonus, unlike most medicated shampoos it actually has a fairly pleasant smell.

Surprisingly pleasant to use!
Brought to help with dry flaky patch. Very nice to use and hair and scalp feel lovely and clean afterwards! Will probably use once flaky patch has healed up. Smell is quite pleasant and clean.

Medicated Shampoo .
Polytar Liquid is a very good product , and works ( For Me ) from day one of application .I have used this Brand for many years . I would recommend this product , but I would strongly advise any person to seek medical advice prior to using any medicated product , or any medication , leave this to the Professionals who are Qualified and experienced in this Field of Knowledge .In other words make an appointment to see a Doctor before using such products ( Please read the instructions & Guidelines Carefully before Usage ) . Thank you Dirk Bennett .
