Prescription Required
Product introduction
K2-Zole Solution is an antifungal medication applied to the skin to treat fungal infections like athlete’s foot, ringworm, jock itch, and yeast infections. It works by stopping the growth of fungus, helping to clear the infection and relieve symptoms like itching, redness, and scaling.
Use K2-Zole Solution in the dose and duration prescribed by your doctor. Continue using the medicine for the full prescribed time, even if symptoms improve, to prevent the infection from coming back. Keep the affected area clean and dry, avoid sharing personal items like towels, and wear loose, breathable clothing to help the skin heal faster.
K2-Zole Solution is usually well-tolerated, but some people may experience mild side effects like skin burning, itching, or redness at the application site. If these occur, try using the medication less often or consult your doctor. Avoid scratching the area, as this can worsen irritation. To minimize side effects, apply only as directed and avoid using it on broken or sensitive skin unless instructed by your doctor.
Before using K2-Zole Solution, inform your doctor if you have allergies or sensitive skin. Avoid contact with the eyes, nose, mouth, or open wounds, as it may cause irritation. Do not cover the treated area with tight bandages unless advised by your doctor, as this can increase absorption and side effects. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult a doctor before use. If your condition does not improve after a few weeks or gets worse, seek medical advice.

FAQs
What is K2-Zole Solution used for?
K2-Zole Solution is an antifungal medicine that treats various skin infections including athlete's foot, ringworm, jock itch, and yeast infections. It works by stopping fungal growth and helps relieve symptoms like itching, redness, and flaking skin.
How long until I see results from using K2-Zole Solution?

It is crucial to continue treatment for the full prescribed duration even after symptoms disappear to prevent the infection from returning.
Is K2-Zole Solution safe to use on broken skin?
You should generally avoid applying K2-Zole Solution to open wounds or severely damaged skin unless specifically instructed by your doctor, as it may cause additional irritation. For minor cuts or abrasions near the affected area, apply carefully around them.
What side effects might I experience?
Some users report mild skin irritation, burning sensations, itching, or dryness where the medication is applied. These effects are usually temporary. However, if you develop severe reactions like significant swelling, intense redness, or blistering, discontinue use immediately and consult your healthcare provider.
Can pregnant or breastfeeding women use K2-Zole Solution?
While topical ketoconazole is generally considered low-risk, pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using this medication to weigh potential benefits against any possible risks.
Can I apply other skin products over K2-Zole Solution?
You may use makeup, moisturizers, or sunscreen after applying K2-Zole Solution, but wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow the medication to be fully absorbed into the skin first.
How can I prevent fungal infections from recurring?
Maintain good skin hygiene by keeping affected areas clean and dry. Avoid sharing personal items like towels or clothing. For foot infections, consider using antifungal powder in shoes and socks. Wearing breathable fabrics like cotton can also help prevent reinfection.
Is K2-Zole Solution appropriate for children?
While K2-Zole Solution can be used in pediatric patients, it should only be administered under medical supervision. The appropriate dosage and treatment duration may vary depending on the child's age and the severity of the infection.
What precautions should I take while using K2-Zole Solution?
Take care to avoid contact with the eyes, nose, and mouth. Unless directed by your doctor, don't cover treated areas with airtight bandages, as this may increase absorption and side effects. Be mindful that it may increase sun sensitivity in some people, so take appropriate sun protection measures.
Can I stop treatment once my symptoms improve?
