How Dermitor-KT Cream works

Dermitor-KT Cream is a combination of three medicines: Ketoconazole, Beclometasone and Neomycin which treat skin infections. Ketoconazole is an antifungal which stops the growth of fungi while Neomycin is an antibiotic which stops the growth of bacteria on the skin. Together, they treat your skin infection effectively. Beclometasone is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen and itchy.

  • It is for use on skin only. Do not use it in your eyes, mouth, or vagina. Rinse with cold water if you accidentally get it in these areas.
  • Don't cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor, as this may increase the risk of side effects.
  • If you think the area of skin you are treating has become more irritated, you should stop using Dermitor-KT Cream and consult your doctor.
