KFC Cream is a combination of four medicines: Ketoconazole, Fluocinolone acetonide, Neomycin, and Menthol. Ketoconazole is an antifungal medication that kills fungi by destroying the fungal cell membrane. Fluocinolone acetonide is a steroid that works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause inflammation and allergies. Neomycin is an antibiotic that stops bacterial growth by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. Menthol is an extract from peppermint that provides a cooling effect on the skin.
