Ketoconazole (2% w/w)
Active composition
Ketoconazole inhibits ergosterol synthesis, compromising fungal cell membrane integrity and leading to cell lysis.
Medical applications
Keto Cream contains Ketoconazole 2% w/w, an antifungal agent indicated for the treatment of various superficial fungal infections of the skin. Ketoconazole is an imidazole derivative that exerts its antifungal effect by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, leading to increased membrane permeability and ultimately fungal cell death. Keto Cream is primarily used in the management of dermatophytosis, candidiasis, pityriasis versicolor, and seborrheic dermatitis. The cream formulation allows for topical application, providing targeted antifungal activity with minimal systemic absorption. It is typically applied once or twice daily to the affected area after cleansing and drying the skin. Treatment duration varies depending on the condition being treated but generally ranges from 2 to 4 weeks. Keto Cream should be used with caution in patients with known hypersensitivity to ketoconazole or any of the cream’s excipients. Adverse effects are usually mild and may include local irritation, burning sensation, itching, or erythema at the application site. Patients are advised to avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. If irritation persists or worsens, medical consultation is recommended. Keto Cream is contraindicated in individuals with hypersensitivity to ketoconazole or other azole antifungals.
