Where is it dripping from? If it's from the thread, you might want to take a trip to Home Depot and pick up some white Teflon tape. Line the threads with the tape and then reattach the shower head. If it's dripping from another area, it may be a manufacturer's defect. How old is the unit?

Get the model number and go to a plumbers merchant and ask for a washer and "O-ring" kit. It sounds like the washers/O-rings are worn and need replacing. If the shower is older than ten years then the shower unit might need to be replaced!

You need to renew the seals in the shower. Go to the triton website and order some

Sounds like your inlet valve is on the way out, not an expensive part but before trying to repair it make sure you isolate the power and water to it. If you are not, don't attempt it yourself.
