Follicure Anti Dandruff Shampoo is used to treat dandruff, a scalp condition characterized by dry, itchy, white flakes of skin. The symptoms include itchy scalp, red, oily, scaly skin, and oily, large white or yellow flakes. Dandruff may be triggered by a fungus called Malassezia. Certain factors, such as stress, hormones, and age, can cause fungus to multiply more quickly than usual.
