Nizoral Cream (active ingredient: ketoconazole) is a prescription antifungal medication used to treat certain fungal skin infections.
It is applied directly to the affected area of skin and works by stopping the fungus from growing.
Nizoral Cream may be used to treat tinea corporis, commonly known as ringworm.
Ringworm can cause a red, itchy, circular rash with raised or scaly edges. Despite its name, it is caused by a fungus and not by a worm.
Nizoral Cream may also be used to treat tinea cruris, commonly called jock itch.
Jock itch usually affects the groin and inner thighs. It may cause redness, itching, burning, or a scaly rash.
Nizoral Cream can be used to treat tinea pedis, also known as athlete’s foot.
Athlete’s foot commonly affects the skin between the toes or on the soles of the feet. Symptoms may include itching, burning, peeling, cracking, or redness.
Nizoral Cream belongs to a group of medications called antifungals.
Ketoconazole works by interfering with the production of ergosterol, an important substance that fungi need to maintain their cell membranes.
Without enough ergosterol, the fungal cell membrane becomes damaged and cannot function normally. This helps stop the fungus from growing and allows the infection to gradually clear.
Nizoral Cream is used for fungal infections that affect the surface of the skin. It can help reduce symptoms such as:
Symptoms may begin to improve before the infection is completely gone, so it is important to use Nizoral Cream for the full length of time recommended by your healthcare provider.
Nizoral Cream is applied directly to the affected area of skin. It is usually used once or twice a day, depending on the type of fungal infection and your healthcare provider’s instructions.
The length of treatment can vary. Some infections may need treatment for several weeks, even if symptoms begin to improve sooner.
Wash your hands before using the medication.
Clean the affected area and dry it thoroughly. Fungi often grow in warm, moist areas, so keeping the skin clean and dry can help support treatment.
Apply a thin layer of Nizoral Cream to the affected skin and a small area of the surrounding skin.
Gently rub the cream in until it is absorbed.
After applying the medication, wash your hands, unless your hands are the area being treated.
Nizoral Cream is for external use on the skin only.
Do not apply it:
If the cream accidentally gets into your eyes, rinse them thoroughly with water.
Do not wrap, bandage, or tightly cover the treated skin unless your healthcare provider tells you to do so.
Covering the area may change how the medication is absorbed and could increase the risk of skin irritation.
For the best results, use Nizoral Cream at approximately the same time each day.
Continue using it for the full length of time prescribed, even if the itching, redness, or rash improves before treatment is finished.
Stopping too early may allow some of the fungus to remain, which can cause the infection to return.
Applying extra cream or using Nizoral more often than directed will not make the infection clear faster.
Using too much may increase the risk of redness, burning, irritation, or other skin reactions.
The length of treatment depends on the type and location of the fungal infection.
Your healthcare provider may recommend treatment for several weeks. Continue using Nizoral Cream for the prescribed period, even if your skin looks or feels better sooner.
Contact your healthcare provider if:
Your healthcare provider may need to confirm the diagnosis or recommend a different treatment.
Nizoral Cream (Ketoconazole) is available in the following forms and strength:
Some people may be allergic to ketoconazole or other ingredients in Nizoral Cream.
Stop using the cream and seek medical attention if you develop signs of a serious allergic reaction, such as:
Nizoral Cream may cause burning, stinging, redness, itching, or irritation at the application site.
Mild irritation may improve as your skin adjusts to treatment. If the irritation becomes severe, painful, or does not go away, stop using the cream and contact your healthcare provider.
Because Nizoral Cream is applied to the skin, only a small amount of ketoconazole is usually absorbed into the bloodstream. This means drug interactions are generally less likely than with oral ketoconazole.
Even so, tell your healthcare provider about all the medications and skin products you use, including prescription medicines, over-the-counter products, vitamins, supplements, and other topical treatments.
If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, talk to your healthcare provider before using Nizoral Cream.
Your healthcare provider can determine whether the benefits of treatment outweigh any possible risks.
Serious liver problems are mainly associated with oral ketoconazole, not ketoconazole cream, because very little medication is absorbed into the bloodstream when it is applied to the skin.
If you have liver disease, however, tell your healthcare provider before starting treatment so they can determine whether Nizoral Cream is appropriate for you.
The use of Nizoral Cream in children may depend on the child’s age and the condition being treated.
Talk to your healthcare provider before using Nizoral Cream on a child. Do not use it in children unless it has been recommended by a healthcare professional.
Nizoral Cream is an antifungal medication, so it only works against certain fungal infections.
It will not treat skin infections caused by bacteria or viruses. Using it for the wrong type of infection may delay appropriate treatment.
Nizoral Cream is for external use on the skin only.
Do not apply it in the eyes, mouth, inside the nose, or other mucous membranes. If the cream accidentally gets into your eyes, rinse them thoroughly with water.
Contact your healthcare provider if your infection gets worse, does not improve after the recommended treatment period, or causes severe redness, swelling, blistering, or pain.
Your healthcare provider may need to confirm that the infection is fungal or recommend a different treatment.
If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, talk to your healthcare provider before using Nizoral Cream. Your healthcare provider can help determine whether the benefits of treatment outweigh any possible risks.
Because Nizoral Cream is applied to the skin, only a small amount of ketoconazole is usually absorbed into the bloodstream. This means drug interactions are less common than with oral ketoconazole. Still, tell your healthcare provider about all the medications and skin products you use, including prescription medicines, over-the-counter products, vitamins, supplements, and other topical treatments.
Nizoral Cream is generally used for fungal infections affecting the skin and is not usually the preferred form for treating scalp conditions. For certain fungal or yeast-related scalp conditions, a ketoconazole shampoo, such as Nizoral Shampoo, may be more appropriate. Ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist which formulation is best for your condition.
The length of treatment depends on the type and location of the fungal infection. Nizoral Cream is often used for several weeks. Continue using it for the full treatment period recommended by your healthcare provider, even if your symptoms improve sooner. Stopping treatment too early may allow the infection to return.
If you miss a dose, apply Nizoral Cream as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next scheduled application, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not apply extra cream to make up for the missed dose.
