About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Ketzz 2% Cream contains Ketoconazole 2% w/w, an imidazole antifungal agent indicated for the treatment of various superficial fungal infections of the skin. Ketoconazole exerts its antifungal activity by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, thereby disrupting membrane integrity and leading to fungal cell death. Ketzz 2% Cream is commonly prescribed for conditions such as tinea corporis, tinea cruris, tinea pedis, and seborrheic dermatitis caused by Malassezia species. The cream formulation allows for topical application directly to the affected area, providing targeted antifungal action with minimal systemic absorption. It is typically applied once or twice daily to clean, dry skin for a duration determined by the severity and type of infection, usually ranging from 2 to 4 weeks. Patients should avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes during application. Ketzz 2% Cream is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to ketoconazole or any cream excipients. Adverse effects are generally mild and may include local irritation, burning, or itching at the application site. Proper adherence to the prescribed regimen is essential to ensure effective eradication of the fungal infection and to prevent recurrence.
