Introduction About KENOZOLE B CREAM
KENOZOLE B CREAM is a combination of Beclomethasone and Ketoconazole, which belong to the groups of medicines called Anti-inflammatory and Antifungal respectively. It is used to manage different kinds of fungal infections like Tinea corporis (Ringworm), Tinea pedis (Athlete's foot), Tinea cruris (Jock itch), and Tinea capitis (Ringworm of the scalp).
These fungal infections can spread easily from one person to another and cause redness and itching in the affected area. They are usually seen in moist and sweaty areas of the body as tinea pedis is usually seen in between the toes due to fitting shoes whereas tinea cruris and groin are seen in the inner thigh region.
Avoid applying KENOZOLE B CREAM on the skin surface that is cut, scraped, sunburned, or eczema affected. KENOZOLE B CREAM is not recommended for use in patients suffering from skin-related viral infections, tuberculosis, acne rosacea, and perioral dermatitis.
KENOZOLE B CREAM should be used with caution in pregnancy and breastfeeding women unless considered necessary. KENOZOLE B CREAM is not recommended for use in children 9 years of age and below. KENOZOLE B CREAM should be used with caution in elderly patients (aged 65 years or above).

How KENOZOLE B CREAM Works
KENOZOLE B CREAM is a combination of Beclomethasone and Ketoconazole. Beclomethasone is a corticosteroid that works by reducing inflammation and relieving symptoms like itching, redness, irritation, and swelling by blocking the enzymes responsible for causing it (prostaglandins and leukotrienes). Ketoconazole is an imidazole that blocks the synthesis of ergosterol, a key component of the fungal cell membrane, thus weakening the structure and function of the fungal cell membrane.
