Active composition
Ketoconazole inhibits ergosterol synthesis, compromising fungal cell membrane integrity and leading to cell lysis.
Medical applications
Ketonet Soap contains Ketoconazole 2% w/w, an imidazole antifungal agent effective in the treatment of various superficial fungal infections. Ketoconazole acts by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, leading to increased membrane permeability and ultimately fungal cell death. This medicated soap is indicated for the management of dermatophytosis, pityriasis versicolor, seborrheic dermatitis, and other fungal skin infections.
It is particularly useful in reducing fungal colonization and controlling symptoms such as itching, scaling, and inflammation associated with these conditions. Ketonet Soap should be used externally by applying to the affected area, lathering gently, and rinsing thoroughly. The frequency and duration of use depend on the severity of the infection and the prescribing healthcare professional’s recommendations, typically once or twice daily for 2 to 4 weeks.
Caution is advised in patients with known hypersensitivity to ketoconazole or any components of the formulation. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes; if accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. Use during pregnancy and lactation should be under medical supervision. Ketonet Soap offers a convenient and effective topical antifungal option for managing fungal skin infections.
