Frequently asked questions about Ketoconazole

Q. What is K20 Soap used for?
K20 Soap is used to treat skin infections which may appear on the feet (Athlete’s foot), in the groin area (jock itch), or between skin folds (sweat rash infected with a yeast infection “thrush”). It is also used for candida infections of skin and nails. It rapidly relieves the itching caused due to these fungal infections.
Q. Is K20 Soap a steroid cream?
No, K20 Soap is not a steroid cream. It is an anti-fungal medicine which belongs to the imidazole class of medicines. It works by killing the fungi or by preventing the growth of fungi that cause infection.
Q. What are the side effects of K20 Soap?
The common side effects are application site burning, redness, and itching. The application site may also develop some uncommon side effects such as discomfort, dryness, bleeding, severe allergic reactions, urticaria or hives, rash, skin exfoliation, sticky skin, prickling sensation, or inflammation.
Q. Can I use a steroid cream along with K20 Soap?
It is recommended that you use a mild steroid ointment like hydrocortisone cream/ointment in the morning and use K20 Soap in the evening. You can then stop using the steroid cream gradually over 2-3 weeks. But, if you have used a potent corticosteroid for seborrheic dermatitis, maintain at least a gap of 2 weeks before you apply K20 Soap to prevent skin sensitization.
Q. How should K20 Soap be applied?
Wash the affected area thoroughly with water and then dry it. Wash your hands carefully (until and unless your hands are also affected) after applying K20 Soap. This will prevent the infection from spreading to other parts of the body or other people.
Q. For how long do I need to use K20 Soap?
You should use K20 Soap for as long as advised by your doctor. Generally, it is to be used for 2-4 weeks for jock itch and sweat rash and 2-6 weeks for Athlete’s foot. Do not stop using it even if your symptoms have disappeared because the infection may reappear if not properly treated.
Q. What should I do if I forget to use K20 Soap?
If you forget to use K20 Soap, do not worry and continue using K20 Soap as soon as you remember. However, if you are not sure and have any other doubts, please consult your doctor.
