KETONATE CREAM is used to treat skin infections (bacterial and fungal) with associated inflammation. It is composed of Ketoconazole (antifungal), Beclomethasone (steroid) and Neomycin (aminoglycoside antibiotic). Ketoconazole stops the growth of fungi by causing damage and leakage to the fungal cell membrane. Beclomethasone (Beclometasone) is a corticosteroid that blocks the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers), which make the affected area red, swollen, and itchy. Neomycin works by inhibiting the production of essential proteins that are necessary for bacteria to grow, multiply, and increase in number, thereby preventing the growth of bacteria.

About KETONATE CREAM

KETONATE CREAM is a dermatological medication primarily used to treat skin infections (bacterial and fungal) with associated inflammation. Bacterial skin infection occurs when bacteria penetrate through hair follicles or the broken skin and cause infection. Symptoms include redness, pain, tenderness of the skin, minor bumps or boils, rashes, blisters, cracked/dry skin, swelling, stinging or burning sensation, pus formation, and itching. Fungal infection occurs when a fungus invades and affects the tissue on the skin. Symptoms of a fungal infection include skin rash, irritation, redness and scaling of the skin.
