What dandruff shampoos actually work?

Shampoos use a combination of ingredients to control dandruff. Salicylic acid (used in Sebulex) removes dead skin cells from the scalp and decrease the rate at which these cells are created. Zinc pyrithione (introduced by Revlon in ZP11 shampoo, now used in Head & Shoulders) kills pityrospora, a fungus. Selenium sulfide (used in Selsun Blue) achieves the results of both salicylic acid and zinc pyrithione. Ketoconazole, and anti-fungal agent, is also used in some preparations, and test have shown it to be the most effective one. It is found in anti-fungal versions of Head and Shoulders, and Selsun Blue. Simply increasing usage with normal shampooing will remove flakes. However, elimination of the fungus results in dramatic improvement. Regular shampooing with an anti-fungal product can reduce recurrence.
