How it works
Keto B Cream is a combination of two medicines: Beclometasone and Ketoconazole, which treats fungal skin infections. Beclometasone is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen and itchy. Ketoconazole is an antifungal which stops the growth of fungi by preventing them from forming their own protective covering.
Quick Tips
This combination medicine helps treat skin infections caused by many different types of fungi. It can take a few weeks for the infection to clear and a few months before the skin returns to its normal color. It is not taken orally, so it does not cause many side effects. Do not cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor. It is for use on skin only. Do not use it in your eyes, mouth, or vagina.

Frequently asked questions
How do I use Keto B Cream?
Use Keto B Cream as directed by your doctor. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected skin areas, covering them sufficiently. Typically, Keto B Cream is applied 2-3 times a day. After application, wash your hands, unless you are treating a skin infection on your hands.
Can I stop taking Keto B Cream when my symptoms improve?
No, do not discontinue Keto B Cream treatment even if your symptoms improve. Complete the full course of treatment as advised by your doctor, as your symptoms may improve before the infection is fully cured.
What precautions should I take while using Keto B Cream?
Do not apply Keto B Cream to the face. Avoid using the medication for extended periods or applying bandages/dressings to the treated area, as this may increase absorption and lead to side effects. This medication should only be used by the patient and not shared with others, even if their condition appears similar.
Will Keto B Cream be more effective if taken in excess?
