I'll let you know if it helps.
I do find both the OTC Nizoral and generic 2% ketoconazole shampoo to be drying. I use Head & Shoulders Dry Scalp Conditioner afterwards, which is quite heavy and keeps my hair from being dry. Pyrithione zinc shampoo has also been shown to be helpful in hair loss, and that conditioner contains 0.5% pyrithione zinc, so I figure it might help a little.

I also use either 1% or 2% pyrithione zinc shampoo on the days I don't use the ketoconazole shampoo. The 1% pyrithione zinc shampoo (regular Head & Shoulders) seems to be the least drying of the lot.
