Hair Products for Dandruff

While common, dandruff can be uncomfortable and frustrating to deal with. It can also be embarrassing when flakes make an appearance. Fortunately, there are plenty of things that you can do to help keep flakes and itching at bay—and it all starts with selecting the right hair products for dandruff.


At CeraVe, we have a range of clinically tested anti-dandruff haircare products to help promote hydrated, healthy-feeling hair. Our anti-dandruff shampoos and conditioners are formulated without some common irritants, including sulfates, MIT, dyes, parabens, and fragrances, and they’re suitable for individuals with all hair types and curl patterns.


The CeraVe Anti-Dandruff Hydrating Shampoo makes for a great first step in your haircare routine. With niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and 1% Pyrithione Zinc, the anti-dandruff shampoo gently cleanses to remove buildup without stripping away moisture or disrupting the scalp’s natural moisture barrier. When used alongside the CeraVe Anti-Dandruff Hydrating Conditioner, it helps remove up to 100% of visible flakes, reduces scalp itchiness and irritation.* The allergy-tested formula should be used at least twice a week, or as often as recommended by a doctor, to help promote soft, healthy-feeling hair.*


Alternatively, you could use a multi-purpose product for dandruff, like the CeraVe 2-in-1 Anti-Dandruff Hydrating Shampoo & Conditioner. Like all CeraVe haircare products, this sulfate-free anti-dandruff shampoo and conditioner is pH-balanced, allergy-tested, and suitable for sensitive scalps. Use the multitasking formula at least twice weekly, or as directed by a doctor, to gently cleanse your scalp and hair and help eliminate up to 100% of visible flakes, plus relieve itch and irritation, without disrupting the scalp barrier.** With the right anti-dandruff hair products in your lineup, a more comfortable scalp is within reach.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We recommend using your CeraVe anti-dandruff shampoo and conditioner at least twice a week to see the best results. If you’re unsure about the cadence of using anti-dandruff hair products that work best for your needs, consult with your doctor or dermatologist.

  • We recommend using both an anti-dandruff shampoo and conditioner to remove buildup, help control flakes, and other dandruff symptoms. Start by washing your hair with a gentle anti-dandruff shampoo, like the CeraVe Anti-Dandruff Hydrating Shampoo, which removes buildup without disrupting the scalp barrier. Then, rinse thoroughly and apply the CeraVe Anti-Dandruff Hydrating Conditioner to help support soft, healthy-looking hair.


    If you’d prefer a single product, CeraVe also offers a 2-in-1 Anti-Dandruff Hydrating Shampoo and Conditioner, which helps remove up to 100% of visible flakes, plus helps control itching and irritation, without disrupting the scalp’s natural moisture barrier.**


    **With regular use

  • According to the Mayo Clinic, anti-dandruff shampoos are medicated shampoos that cleanse the hair and scalp by removing excess oils and dead skin cells that can contribute to flakes and irritation1.


    Anti-dandruff shampoos typically contain specific active ingredients that target the symptoms of dandruff. CeraVe Anti-Dandruff Hydrating Shampoo, CeraVe Anti-Dandruff Hydrating Conditioner, and CeraVe 2 in 1 Anti-Dandruff Hydrating Shampoo & Conditioner are formulated with 1% Pyrithione Zinc and are designed to help eliminate up to 100% of visible flakes, and to relieve itch, without disrupting the scalp barrier or striping away hair’s moisture.*

  • How often you wash your hair should be dictated by your hair type. Those with oily hair may need to wash their hair every day or every other day to help keep their scalp and hair feeling clean, while those with drier scalps, curly or coily hair, or thick hair may only need to shampoo less often. If you’re washing your hair daily, it may be best to rotate between a standard shampoo, like the CeraVe Gentle Hydrating Shampoo, and your anti-dandruff shampoo. If you’re unsure how often you should wash your hair, consult with a board-certified dermatologist.

  • Anti-dandruff shampoos typically contain specific ingredients that fight the symptoms of dandruff. Our anti-dandruff hair products are formulated with 1% Pyrithione Zinc, along with hydrating ingredients including ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide.
