Ketoconazole (2% w/v)
Active composition
Ketoconazole inhibits ergosterol synthesis, compromising fungal cell membrane integrity and leading to cell lysis.
Medical applications
Ketozit 2% Lotion contains Ketoconazole 2% w/v, an imidazole antifungal agent effective in the treatment of various superficial fungal infections of the skin. 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. This lotion is primarily indicated for the management of dermatophytosis, pityriasis versicolor, seborrheic dermatitis, and candidiasis affecting the skin. Ketozit 2% Lotion is applied topically to the affected area once or twice daily, depending on the severity and type of infection, and should be used consistently for the prescribed duration to ensure complete eradication of the fungal pathogen and prevent recurrence. The formulation is designed for easy application and rapid absorption, minimizing systemic exposure and reducing the risk of adverse effects. Common side effects may include mild local irritation, itching, or redness at the application site, which are generally transient. Ketozit 2% Lotion is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to ketoconazole or any of the lotion’s excipients. Caution is advised when applying near mucous membranes or broken skin. This medication should be used under medical supervision, and patients are advised to complete the full course of treatment even if symptoms improve earlier to avoid relapse.
