Question

I'm really concerned because I have dandruff and some rashes on my scalp, and my doctor suggested using Kz lotion and CandidB lotion. But I forgot to ask how exactly I should be using both of these together. Could you guide me on how to apply them properly? Should they be used at different times, or can I mix them? I'm a bit unsure and want to make sure I'm doing it right.

Use KZ lotion on your scalpapply it, leave it for 3-5 minutes, and then rinse off. For Candid-B, apply a thin layer only on the rash-affected areas of your scalp, twice daily, unless told otherwise. Keep both away from your eyes, and if irritation happens, let your doctor know.

Question

I've been dealing with hives for the last three months, and it's been pretty frustrating. My dermatologist put me on Allegra and Elina Tablet for a month. But as soon as I stopped the meds, the hives came back. I was told to continue Elina for another 40 days, but they returned the day after I finished the course. Is there really no long-term solution for hives? I'm getting really tired of this cycle.
