+1 more active ingredient
Ketoconazole inhibits ergosterol synthesis, compromising fungal cell membrane integrity and leading to cell lysis.
Cetrimide disrupts microbial cell membranes and inhibits their growth, providing an antiseptic effect.
Medical applications
Ketogen Soap is a medicated cleansing bar formulated with Cetrimide (0.5% w/w) and Ketoconazole (2% w/w), designed for the effective management of fungal and bacterial skin infections. Ketoconazole, a broad-spectrum antifungal agent, inhibits the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, thereby disrupting fungal growth and proliferation. Cetrimide, a quaternary ammonium compound, acts as an antiseptic and surfactant, providing additional antibacterial activity and aiding in the removal of debris and microorganisms from the skin surface. This combination makes Ketogen Soap particularly effective in treating conditions such as tinea versicolor, pityriasis versicolor, seborrheic dermatitis, and other superficial fungal infections. The soap is intended for topical use and should be applied to the affected area, lathered, and rinsed thoroughly, typically once or twice daily as directed by a healthcare professional. Ketogen Soap is generally well tolerated; however, users should avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes and discontinue use if irritation or hypersensitivity reactions occur. This product is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to ketoconazole, cetrimide, or any other components of the formulation. As with all antifungal therapies, adherence to the prescribed regimen is essential to achieve optimal therapeutic outcomes and prevent recurrence.
How to use Ketogen Soap Use it as advised by your doctor or check the label for directions before use.
