Ketoconazole cream 2% is a non-steroid antifungal medicine. It treats certain fungal and yeast infections on the skin by killing the fungus/yeast or preventing its growth.
Ketoconazole cream 2% is used on the skin for:
Sometimes, yes. Ketoconazole cream may be applied to the face only if the affected area is on the face (for example, seborrheic dermatitis or a fungal infection diagnosed by a clinician). Use a thin layer and keep it away from the eyes, lips, and inside the nose. If it causes strong burning, swelling, or a rash, stop using it and contact a clinician.
No. Ketoconazole cream is an antifungal medicine (not a corticosteroid). It does not work like steroid creams used to calm inflammation in conditions such as eczema or psoriasis.
If you have been using a steroid cream/ointment/lotion on the same area (for example, betamethasone or hydrocortisone), ask your doctor or pharmacist how to stop it and when to start ketoconazole cream. Do not change steroid use on your own if you are unsure.
Wash and dry the affected skin. Apply a thin layer to the affected area and the immediate surrounding skin, then rub in gently. Wash your hands after applying (unless treating your hands).
If there is no improvement after the recommended treatment period, the diagnosis should be reviewed by a clinician.
| Condition | Used to treat with ketoconazole cream 2%? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Ringworm (tinea corporis) | Yes | On-label skin use. |
| Tinea versicolor | Yes | On-label skin use. |
| Yeast infection (skin / cutaneous candidiasis) | Yes | On-label for yeast infection of the skin. Not for vaginal yeast infection. |
| Seborrheic dermatitis | Yes | Often affects scalp and face; use as directed and avoid eyes. |
| Pimples (acne vulgaris) | — | Not used for typical acne. If bumps are due to yeast (Malassezia) folliculitis, antifungals may be used under clinician guidance (off-label). |
| Rosacea | — | Not a standard treatment for rosacea. |
| Eczema | — | Not a standard treatment for eczema (eczema is usually inflammatory, not fungal). |
| Psoriasis | — | Not a standard treatment for psoriasis. |
| Hair loss | — | Not used to treat hair loss. If scalp symptoms are due to seborrheic dermatitis, treating the rash may help discomfort/flaking, but it is not a hair-loss treatment. |
Most side effects are local to the application site. Stop use and seek medical advice if you develop signs of allergy.
Store at 68°F to 77°F (20°C to 25°C). Keep out of the reach of children.
Ketoconazole cream 2% contains 20 mg of ketoconazole per 1 g of cream (2% w/w). Inactive ingredients vary by manufacturer.
Important: Some formulations contain sodium sulfite, which can cause allergic-type reactions (including severe reactions) in susceptible people, especially those with asthma.
I have used Nizoral cream in the United States before. Can I switch to this generic for the same skin problem?
A switch can be considered only if the labels match for active ingredient, strength, and dosage form: ketoconazole 2% cream. The manufacturer, packaging, appearance, and inactive ingredients may differ, so compare those details with your previous product and prescription directions.
I used ketoconazole shampoo before. What form do you sell for this product?
Our listing is for ketoconazole 2% topical cream in tubes. It is not a shampoo, tablet, or other dosage form.
Will the ketoconazole cream package include an English-language leaflet?
The leaflet language for the exact package is not confirmed and can vary by supplied product. Before use, rely on the package label for the active ingredient, 2% strength, topical cream dosage form, directions, and expiration date.
If this cream works for me, will a future order be from the same manufacturer?
We cannot guarantee the same manufacturer for a repeat order. Verify each tube by checking the ketoconazole active ingredient, 2% strength, cream dosage form, manufacturer name, lot number, and expiration date on its label.
My skin is already sensitive. What reactions should I watch for when using ketoconazole cream?
Mild burning, itching, redness, irritation, dryness, or stinging at the application site can occur. Stop using the cream and seek prompt medical care for hives, marked swelling, blistering, trouble breathing, or a severe or spreading rash.
