View allI've been dealing with dandruff, hair fall, and a flaky scalp, and after seeing the doctor today, he prescribed KEVON ZIP lotion. Now I'm confused because he told me to apply it two hours before washing my hair, but when I got home and read the directions, it says to use it on wet hair for only 3 minutes. So, which method is actually correct? He also recommended Fidelia Shampoo and BTN ultra tablets for a 30-day course. Just wondering if this treatment plan sounds right to you, or if I should consider any other options?
-Its best to follow your doctors advice and apply KEVON ZIP lotion 2 hours before your head bath. For the shampoo, use Fidelia as directed, and take the BTN Ultra tablets for 30 days. Always follow the prescribed instructions for optimal results.
