| Abstract: | A popular atlas of dermatology lists more than 35 diseases which commonly affect the scalp.1 Scaling is a prominent feature of several of them. Clearly, a comprehensive review is not possible within the compass of this article. Instead, attention will be focused on some relatively common conditions, which the community pharmacist may be called upon to recognize and treat. The discussion includes advice concerning diagnoses, pitfalls, over-the-counter (OTC) remedies, and when to refer. |
