Side effects of Sol K Cream

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

Common side effects of Sol K

  • Application site reactions (burning, irritation, itching and redness)

How to use Sol K Cream

This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Clean and dry the affected area and apply the cream. Wash your hands after applying, unless hands are the affected area.

How Sol K Cream works

Sol K Cream is a combination of two medicines: Ketoconazole and Clobetasone. Ketoconazole is an antifungal medication. It kills and stops the growth of the fungi by destroying its cell membrane, thereby treating your skin infection. Clobetasone is a steroid which works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause inflammation (redness and swelling) and allergies.

Quick tips

  • Be cautious and avoid applying Sol K Cream to sensitive areas like the eyes, mouth, or any open wounds.
  • Use the medicine consistently and for the full duration prescribed, even if symptoms improve before the treatment period ends. This helps prevent recurrence of the infection.
  • Unless directed by your doctor, avoid covering the treated area with airtight dressings, as this can increase the risk of side effects.
  • Let your doctor know if you have any other skin conditions or are using other topical medications to avoid potential interactions.
  • Do not use more than the prescribed amount. Overuse can lead to potential side effects such as thinning of the skin or increased risk of systemic absorption.
