Because of its chronic nature, adult seborrheic dermatitis is treated with topical ketoconazole as a first-line therapy. The other azole antifungal agents are just as effective. The addition of a weak topical corticosteroid used intermittently can also lead to excellent results. The scalp is most commonly treated with a ketoconazolebased shampoo or a taror selenium-based shampoo. There is no cure for seborrheic dermatitis, but most therapeutic regimens, if adhered to, lead to an excellent clinical response.
