What's the difference between prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) dry scalp treatments?

OTC dry scalp treatments contain active ingredients that can help control mild dandruff. But for moderate to severe dandruff, healthcare providers may prescribe stronger medications that can help control more stubborn symptoms. When used regularly, these treatments can help prevent relapse.

Could you benefit from prescription dandruff treatment? It depends on your symptoms.

Mild dandruff symptoms: Skin flaking and shedding without inflammation

Moderate to severe dandruff symptoms: Skin scaling, inflammation, and itching

Frequently asked questions

About Amazon One Medical

What are my telehealth options for this condition?
Amazon One Medical offers multiple ways to get care from the comfort of your own home.

If you're a One Medical member and you live in a state where One Medical has offices, you can schedule Remote Visits with One Medical providers, which are billable to you or your health insurance. As a member, you can also get 24/7 on-demand virtual care with Treat Me Now or Urgent Video Chat via the One Medical app at no extra cost, no matter where you live in the United States.

If you're not a One Medical member, you can start a one-time virtual visit with Pay-per-visit. Pay-per-visit offers two types of telehealth for Amazon customers: video visits and message-only visits. Video visits are available for $49 in all 50 states and D.C. Message-only visits are currently available for $29 in 34 states.

To see your Pay-per-visit options, first choose your state.
Can I use my health insurance for Pay-per-visit?
Amazon One Medical doesn't accept health insurance for Pay-per-visit care. You can submit a claim to your insurance provider for reimbursement, but we can’t guarantee they’ll reimburse you for your one-time virtual visit.

If you normally use insurance to pay for your medications, you can do that with medications prescribed through all Amazon One Medical services. Amazon Pharmacy accepts most insurance plans. For other pharmacies, please talk with your pharmacy directly about insurance coverage. The cost of medication isn’t included in the cost of your visit.
What happens if my provider can't diagnose or treat my health issue through Amazon One Medical Pay-per-visit?
If your provider can’t diagnose or treat your health issue through Pay-per-visit, they may recommend that you see a primary care provider or a specialist for in-person care. If that happens, you won't be charged.
Can I communicate with a provider after I get my Pay-per-visit treatment plan?
Yes. When you use Pay-per-visit, you can message with One Medical providers within your personal dashboard for an additional 2 weeks (14 days) at no extra cost. This complimentary communication window allows you time to:
Ask follow-up questions about any prescriptions or over-the-counter medications in your treatment plan

• Connect with a provider if you think your treatment needs to be adjusted

• Tell a provider if you're experiencing side effects from your medication

• Tell a provider if there's an issue getting your prescription from the pharmacy

• Let the One Medical care team know that you're feeling better
Your secure, HIPAA-compliant message will be received by the first available provider, who will be able to review your visit’s treatment plan and any follow-up correspondence. If you still need treatment adjustments or have questions after the 14-day communication window, you'll need to start a new visit.
What if I want to refill my medication?
If your provider didn't include refills with a prescription when they sent your treatment plan through Pay-per-visit, you'll need to start a new one-time virtual visit to request another prescription.

There are many reasons why a provider may decide that prescription refills aren't medically appropriate. For example, they may want to assess how well a medication is working and whether or not it needs to be adjusted before you continue with the same treatment.
How does Amazon One Medical protect my health information?
Amazon One Medical protects customers’ protected health information (PHI) with stringent, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)-compliant privacy and security practices to keep information safe and secure.

We’re committed to building an infrastructure that fosters and promotes a culture of customer privacy and a strong commitment to safeguarding health information. We maintain administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect customer information. This includes conducting rigorous security reviews and testing during product development, using encryption to protect data, and providing features like two-step verification to help customers protect their accounts.

Amazon does not sell customers’ personal information, including PHI.

About dandruff

What is dandruff?
Dandruff, also called seborrheic dermatitis (SD) of the scalp, is a common condition that causes skin symptoms like flaking and itching. This skin shedding can be more noticeable on darker clothes and has the potential to cause embarrassment or distress.

While dandruff is restricted to the scalp, seborrheic dermatitis can also affect other areas of the body.
What causes dandruff?
Among other factors, dandruff is caused by sebaceous gland activity and opportunistic fungi called Malassezia. These fungi tend to colonize areas of skin that are high in oil (sebum), like the scalp, face, and upper body. Anti-dandruff shampoos like Nizoral work by preventing these fungi from growing on the scalp.

There's no cure for dandruff, but it's very treatable, and its symptoms tend to improve in warmer months.
