Ketoconazole (2% w/w)
Active composition
Ketoconazole inhibits ergosterol synthesis, compromising fungal cell membrane integrity and leading to cell lysis.
Medical applications
Ketoberg Cream contains Ketoconazole 2% w/w, an imidazole antifungal agent effective against a broad spectrum of fungal infections. It is primarily indicated for the topical treatment of superficial mycoses caused by dermatophytes, yeasts, and other susceptible fungi, including conditions such as tinea corporis, tinea cruris, tinea pedis, and pityriasis versicolor. Ketoconazole exerts its antifungal activity by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, leading to increased membrane permeability and ultimately fungal cell death. Ketoberg Cream is applied once or twice daily to the affected area, with the duration of therapy depending on the type and severity of the infection, typically ranging from 2 to 4 weeks. It is well tolerated, with minimal systemic absorption when used topically. Common adverse effects may include local irritation, burning sensation, or itching at the application site. Ketoberg Cream should be used with caution in patients with known hypersensitivity to ketoconazole or any of the formulation’s excipients. It is not recommended for use on mucous membranes or in the eyes. Patients should be advised to avoid occlusive dressings unless directed by a healthcare professional. Proper hygiene and adherence to the prescribed regimen are essential for optimal therapeutic outcomes.
