What type of shampoos contain special chemicals or drugs for treating dandruff?

  1. Clarifying shampoos

  2. Volumizing shampoos

  3. Moisturizing shampoos

  4. Therapeutic medicated shampoos

The correct answer is: Therapeutic medicated shampoos

Therapeutic medicated shampoos are specifically formulated with special chemicals or drugs to effectively treat dandruff. The other three options, clarifying, volumizing, and moisturizing shampoos, do not typically contain these ingredients and therefore would not be effective in treating dandruff. Clarifying shampoos are used to remove buildup and residue from hair products. Volumizing shampoos aim to add volume to hair. Moisturizing shampoos are designed to hydrate and nourish the hair. So, while these shampoos may have benefits for your hair, they are not intended for treating dandruff like therapeutic medicated shampoos are.
