Ketoconazole (2% w/w)
Active composition
Ketoconazole inhibits ergosterol synthesis, compromising fungal cell membrane integrity and leading to cell lysis.
Medical applications
Ketoya 2% Cream contains Ketoconazole 2% w/w, an imidazole antifungal agent effective against a wide range of fungal infections. Ketoconazole acts by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, thereby disrupting membrane integrity and leading to fungal cell death. Ketoya 2% Cream is indicated for the topical treatment of superficial mycoses, including dermatophytosis, candidiasis, and pityriasis versicolor. It is also effective in managing seborrheic dermatitis due to its antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties. The cream formulation allows for targeted application to affected skin areas, promoting rapid relief of symptoms such as itching, scaling, and redness. Ketoya 2% Cream should be applied once or twice daily to the clean, dry affected area, with the duration of treatment typically ranging from 2 to 4 weeks depending on the severity and type of infection. Adverse effects are generally mild and may include local irritation, burning sensation, or dryness at the application site. Ketoya 2% Cream is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to ketoconazole or any component of the formulation. It is not intended for systemic use, and care should be taken to avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes.
