It sounds like you have a lot of questions about the medication you’ve been prescribed by your doctor. Let me try to explain each one in an easy-to-understand way, so it's like I'm talking to a five year old.

The first medication is MX5 F Lotion, which should be applied once in the morning and once at night on any areas of your scalp where there is hair loss or balding. The lotion helps stop further hair loss and encourages healthy new hair growth.

The second medication is Clear Gel Nico, which should be applied on any pimple prone areas of your face before you go to bed at night. This gel will help reduce signs of acne by cleansing and disinfecting pores as well as reducing redness, inflammation, and skin blemishes caused by acne breakouts.

Finally, the third medicine is Fudic Cream which should be used twice daily over any pimples on the body for 10 days (once in the morning and once at night). This cream helps dry out existing pimples whilst preventing future breakouts from occurring - making sure that your skin stays perfectly clear!

Overall these medications are designed to tackle various issues with scalp health (MX5 F Lotion), facial skincare (Clear Gel Nico)and body acne (Fudic Cream). If taken correctly they can all make a huge difference to both how you look today but also how healthy your skin will be long term too!

Dealing with excessive dandruff leading to hair loss can be frustrating, but there are effective ways to address this issue. Here's what you can do:

1. Switch to a Gentle Shampoo: Opt for shampoos specifically designed for dandruff, containing ingredients like ketoconazole, zinc pyrithione, coal tar, or selenium sulfide. Use these shampoos regularly to reduce dandruff buildup.

2. Scalp Massage: Gently massage your scalp while shampooing to help remove flakes and improve blood circulation, which can promote healthier hair growth.

3. Avoid Hot Water: Wash your hair with lukewarm water instead of hot water, as hot water can dry out your scalp and worsen dandruff.

4. Balanced Diet: Ensure you're eating a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals essential for healthy hair and scalp, such as omega-3 fatty acids, zinc, and B vitamins.

5. Manage Stress: Stress can exacerbate dandruff problems. Practice stress-relief techniques like meditation, yoga, or regular exercise to help manage stress levels.

6. Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse: Consider using diluted apple cider vinegar as a rinse after shampooing. It can help restore the scalp's pH balance and reduce dandruff.

7. Consult a Dermatologist: If the issue persists despite trying home remedies or over-the-counter solutions, seek advice from a dermatologist. They can provide a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific scalp condition.

Remember, consistency is key when dealing with dandruff. Give these remedies some time to work, as immediate results might not always occur. It's essential to find what works best for your scalp, so don't get discouraged if you don't see immediate improvements.

Taking care of your scalp health not only addresses dandruff but also aids in reducing hair loss associated with this issue. Feel free to incorporate these tips into your routine and observe how your scalp responds. If the problem persists or worsens, seeking professional guidance is always recommended.
