My 12 year old brother has cradle cap what can I do?

My 12 year old little brother has really extensive cradle cap.  He has no health insurance and I need recommendations on anything I can do  for him.  Will conofite lotion 1% possibly help?  And or Chlorhexidine  scrub used as a shampoo, could that work?  What can I do I'm desperate!
