About KETOSTAR CREAM 30 GM

  • KETOSTAR CREAM 30 GM is a potent antifungal medication designed to treat a variety of skin infections caused by different types of fungi. It works by inhibiting the growth of fungi, thereby alleviating symptoms such as itching, redness, and scaling. To ensure effective treatment and prevent recurrence, it is crucial to follow the prescribed dosage and duration of treatment.
  • For those suffering from Athlete's Foot, incorporating a few healthy habits can significantly aid in recovery and prevention:
  • Keep your feet meticulously clean and thoroughly dry, paying special attention to the areas between your toes. Fungi thrive in moist environments, so dryness is key.
  • Maintain short, well-trimmed nails. This helps prevent fungi from harboring under the nails and spreading the infection.
  • Opt for open-toe shoes whenever possible for everyday wear. This allows your feet to breathe and reduces moisture buildup.
  • Use a separate, clean towel exclusively for drying your feet, and wear clean, breathable cotton socks daily. Change socks more frequently if your feet sweat excessively.
  • Never share personal items such as socks, shoes, and towels with others to prevent the spread of infection.
  • It is essential to complete the full course of treatment with KETOSTAR CREAM 30 GM, even if you start feeling better before the prescribed duration. Premature discontinuation can lead to the infection recurring.
  • Avoid contact with sensitive areas like the eyes, nose, and mouth. In case of accidental exposure, rinse immediately and thoroughly with plenty of water.
  • If the skin infection does not show signs of improvement or clear up after 4 weeks of treatment, consult your doctor for further evaluation and alternative treatment options.
  • Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are currently breastfeeding, as the medication's suitability needs to be evaluated in these conditions.

Uses of KETOSTAR CREAM 30 GM

  • Fungal skin infections, which manifest as uncomfortable rashes, redness, and persistent itching, can be effectively addressed with appropriate antifungal treatments, promoting skin health and comfort.

How KETOSTAR CREAM 30 GM Works

  • KETOSTAR CREAM 30 GM is an antifungal medication specifically designed to combat fungal skin infections. Its primary mode of action involves targeting and disrupting the integrity of fungal cell membranes. These membranes are essential structures that enclose the fungal cells, maintaining their shape and controlling the passage of nutrients and waste.
  • The active ingredient in KETOSTAR CREAM 30 GM works by interfering with the synthesis of a crucial component of the fungal cell membrane, a substance called ergosterol. Ergosterol is analogous to cholesterol in human cells and is vital for the membrane's stability and proper function. By inhibiting its production, the medication weakens the cell membrane, causing it to become porous and leaky.
  • As the fungal cell membrane becomes compromised, essential cellular components leak out, and the cell's internal environment is disrupted. This leads to the death of the fungal cell and effectively stops the spread and growth of the fungal infection on your skin. This targeted mechanism ensures that the medication effectively eliminates the fungus while minimizing potential harm to surrounding healthy tissues.
  • Ultimately, this process alleviates the symptoms associated with fungal infections, such as itching, redness, and scaling, allowing the affected skin to heal and recover. Consistent and proper application of KETOSTAR CREAM 30 GM, as directed by your healthcare professional, is crucial for achieving optimal results and preventing recurrence of the infection.

Before applying, carefully read the product label and any accompanying leaflets for detailed directions and precautions.
  • To apply KETOSTAR CREAM 30 GM, ensure the affected area is clean and dry. Gently massage a thin layer of the cream onto the skin until it's fully absorbed. Avoid covering the treated area with bandages or dressings unless specifically instructed by your doctor.
  • Consistency is key when using KETOSTAR CREAM 30 GM. Apply it at the same time(s) each day to maintain a steady level of medication in your system. If you miss a dose, apply it as soon as you remember, but skip it if it's almost time for your next scheduled dose. Do not double the dose to catch up.
  • Continue using KETOSTAR CREAM 30 GM for the entire duration prescribed by your doctor, even if your symptoms improve. Stopping the medication prematurely may lead to a recurrence of the infection or condition. If you have any questions or concerns about using this medication, consult your doctor or pharmacist for clarification.
