Keto 4S Cream is a combination medicine used in the treatment of skin infections. It works by killing microorganisms that cause infection. It also blocks the release of certain chemical messengers that cause redness, swelling, and itching.
Keto 4S Cream is for external use only. You should use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. This medicine should be used regularly to get the most benefit from it. Do not use more than you need as it will not clear your condition faster and some side effects may be increased. If your condition goes on for longer than four weeks or gets worse at any time, let your doctor know. The effects of medicine can be increased by keeping the affected area clean and dry, and washing hands before and after treating the infection.
Some of the common side effects include skin irritation, redness or itching at the site of application. If the side effects bother you or do not go away, let your doctor know. Avoid direct contact with eyes, nose, or mouth. If accidental exposure occurs, rinse immediately with plenty of water.
It is not likely that other medicines you take by mouth or injection will affect the way it works but talk to your doctor before using it if you have used a similar medicine before and had an allergic reaction. This medicine should only be used if it is clearly needed during pregnancy.
Keto 4S Cream helps treat and control skin infections caused by bacteria and fungi. It gives relief from pain, redness, itching, burning sensation at the affected area and speeds up the healing process. You might see a change in your skin appearance in a week if used as prescribed by your doctor.

How to use Keto 4S Cream
This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Clean and dry the affected area and apply the cream. Wash your hands after applying, unless hands are the affected area.
How Keto 4S Cream works
Keto 4S Cream is a combination of four medicines: Ofloxacin, Ornidazole, Terbinafine and Mometasone. Ofloxacin is an antibiotic which stops bacterial growth by preventing synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. Ornidazole is also an antibiotic which kills bacteria and other microorganisms by damaging the DNA. Terbinafine is an antifungal. It stops the growth of fungus by preventing them from forming their own protective covering. Together, they treat your skin infection effectively. Mometasone is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen and itchy.
