How do I apply Diprovate Plus steroidal lotion to my scalp for dandruff? Can I apply it directly to my hair like regular hair oil or should I apply it differently?

Diprovate Plus lotion is a topical corticosteroid used to treat various skin conditions, including dandruff. To apply it to the scalp for dandruff, you should part your hair and apply a small amount of the lotion directly onto the affected areas of the scalp. Gently massage it into the scalp using your fingertips. It is important to avoid applying it to the hair shafts like regular hair oil, as it is specifically meant for the scalp. Use it as directed by your healthcare provider, usually once or twice daily.
