Ketoconazole (2% w/w)
Active composition
Ketoconazole inhibits ergosterol synthesis, compromising fungal cell membrane integrity and leading to cell lysis.
Medical applications
K20 Soap is a medicated cleansing bar formulated with Ketoconazole 2% w/w, an effective antifungal agent used primarily for the treatment of various fungal infections of the skin. Ketoconazole belongs to the imidazole class of antifungals and exerts its action by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, thereby disrupting cell membrane integrity and leading to fungal cell death. K20 Soap is indicated for the management of superficial mycoses such as tinea versicolor, tinea corporis, tinea cruris, and pityriasis versicolor. It is also beneficial in controlling seborrheic dermatitis, a condition characterized by flaky, scaly, and itchy skin, often associated with Malassezia species. The soap provides a convenient topical application that helps reduce fungal load on the skin surface, alleviating symptoms such as itching, scaling, and redness. For optimal results, K20 Soap should be used as directed by a healthcare professional, typically applied to the affected area, lathered, and rinsed off thoroughly. Caution is advised in individuals with known hypersensitivity to ketoconazole or any other components of the formulation. Prolonged use should be avoided unless prescribed, and contact with eyes should be prevented.
How to use K20 Soap Use it as advised by your doctor or check the label for directions before use.
