Introduction About KETOVEN MEDICATED SOAP
Ketoven Soap is an Antifungal agent used to manage, control, prevent, and manage fungal and yeast infections of the skin. It is also used to manage seborrheic dermatitis and dandruff. It contains ketoconazole as an active ingredient which kills the infection-causing fungi.
Ketoconazole inhibits the synthesis of certain compounds that are essential components of the fungal cell membrane and also impairs various important biological processes inside the fungal cell body required for its survival, thereby killing the fungi.
Always use Ketoven Soap as advised by your physician. It is for external use only. While bathing, rub the soap gently on the wet skin to produce enough lather. Allow the lather to stay on the skin for 2-3 minutes and then rinse off with water. Do not use it on open wounds, or chapped, irritated, dry, or sunburned skin. Avoid using it around your eyes, nose, or mouth.
