I've been using Selsun shampoo to manage my dandruff, applying it about twice a week. I'm currently breastfeeding my baby and I'm a bit concerned. Is it alright to keep using Selsun while I'm breastfeeding, or is there any risk involved?

I've been struggling with psoriasis for a while now, and I'm really hoping there's a permanent solution out there. I'm curious if there's any treatment that can completely cure it. It's been tough dealing with the flare-ups, and I'm looking for any advice or options that could help.

Psorolin B ointment is advised for local application, also take tab allegra 120 mg orally for 2 weeks, if any side-effects dermatologist opinion is advised to the patient.
