I have extremely bad dandruff. I used the shampoo once a week and on another day I would use Nioxin. My dermatologist suggested alternating shampoos with different bases. I have curly hair, so I don't wash my hair more than twice a week. My hair isn't dried out either. I also use a topical steriod solution to calm itches as well as two steriod shots over a period of two weeks. So far, my scalp has...

I use ketoconazole cream on my face for acne and it cures it and clears it up very well!! It is way more effective than any kind of acne cream I’ve ever used!!

Originally prescribed for dry patches on face and it worked as my doctor said it was a facial fungus, then I had been fighting jock itch and involving the testicles so I used it for almost two weeks and finally cleared it up. I actually had darkened skin in the groin area for many years that I didn't know what was the problem but Ketoconazole shampoo cleared it all.

Prescribed by my dermatologist for a few small “crusty” spots where my hairline ends and my bald head begins. It works for that, but Spoiler Alert, I thought I would try it on my unsightly dark spots that all us ol’ bald guys eventually get. Well . . . it works! It really does. Over the past few months, I can definitely see that they have really significantly lightened.

Because I had extreme itching of my scalp, my dermatologist prescribed this shampoo to control it. I use it a couple of times a week alternating with my regular shampoo. The only thing I don’t like about it is that I have notice a pronounced chemical smell coming from my skin. I believe it is from the use of this product. No one has commented on the smell, so it is mainly a complaint which ai have experienced.

Used Ketoconazole 2% x 60mg and Shampoo 2%. Effective for: Athlete's Foot, Jock Itch, Ringworm, and Dandruff. No burning or side effects. If you experience burning, you may want to consult your doc and use a different product. IT SHOULD NOT BURN. IT SHOULD NOT BE APPLIED INTERNALLY OR ON BROKEN SKIN/WOUNDS. IF IT DOESN'T WORK... try a different cream. Not EVERY fungi and condition is the same fungus, maybe bacteria, maybe dermatitis, maybe viral. And yes, tinea, eczema, dermatitis; many conditions with differential diagnoses that it can easily be confused for. But for DANDRUFF, RINGWORM, ATHLETE's FOOT and JOCK ITCH; this Ketoconazole knocked it out of the park for me with NO SIDE EFFECTS.Read More Read Less

Applied to dry skin under my breasts, there was a slight burning sensation. This this then turned into a feel that it was running down my abdomen as if the cream was melting away but only lasted a few minutes but could still feel it. I used it as directed, but began to notice my skin began scarring where the cream was. The application only lasted about a day then the rash was back.

I have only used it once and it took more of my hair out, the doctor told me to use it 3 times a week, but i went to her for my hair thinning badly & patches of hair loss too! Now i’m very concerned of using this shampoo anymore cause of losing more hair, yikes! Is dandruff a cause of losing so much hair over a period of time? This shampoo is a generic too!!

At the onset of the symptoms I start using ketoconazole 2-3 times a day. It keeps getting worse and patches of dead skin start appearing, which looks so bad I have to use tweezers to pick it off. When I can't stand it any longer I resort to using triamcinolone acetonide. In 2-3 days the condition improves and goes away. However since this medication is a cortisone I have been advised to use it sparingly.

I use this every time I wash my hair, before shampoo and conditioner. It makes my hair and scalp feel so clean and helps so much with my dandruff areas! I love this stuff!

Taken for a yeast infection of the scalp. It hardly does anything. Took the whole bottle according to directions and saw no change at all.

My dermatologist initially prescribed Ketoconazole 2% cream for a small fungal infection near my hairline. After about a week, the spot was completely gone, but I continued to use the cream for another week as prescribed. Nearly 6 months later, it has not returned. I brought this cream back out a week and a half ago after experiencing the severe itching, redness, and scales characteristic of a fungal infection on the back of neck and groin area. I've struggled with a variety of skin issues my entire life, so I recognized these as fungal infections. One day after applying the cream to these areas, the redness, scaling, and skin integrity drastically improved along with the itching. Almost two weeks later, they're all but gone. For me, ketoconazole 2% is extremely effective. I will say, however, that along with the cream I practice other precautions: I keep the affected areas clean and dry. I also use the medicine in conjunction with Aquaphor for dryness and hydrocortisone for itchiness as needed. For moist groin areas, I also alternate with an over-the-counter antifungal spray (Walgreens Jock Itch spray works just fine).Read More Read Less

I've been battling tinea cruris/corpus for over two months now. GP put me on K2%, a lot of redness and skin discoloration and a lot of itching! Fighting an increased area in my arm pits which seem to be growing not slowing. Going to try using K2 on one side, alternate nystatin on the other side. My groin and penis look red from this not healed. I'll come back in a week with a follow up.

Works great for my face "irritations" that would normally flare up from time to time. They are pretty annoying and slightly painful. As long as I apply this at least once a week, the "irritations" never appear. You have to stay on top of it or it gets out of control. When it is out of control you have to use a steroid cream to calm everything down again.

It may take a few days but the improvement in the skin condition are very Noticeable even the naked eye. I make that observation based on my own experience.

Applied to Mom's feet religiously for 6 months. Used cotton socks and sandals. No effect. Would NOT prescribe oral meds, stating they were "too hard on the liver." So she suffers with this instead. The toes catch on socks and are so thickened and distended that shoes don't fit properly.

Had a rash on the external sides of my mouth, got presribed this, and then made the life-regretful mistake of applying it not only to those areas but also on totally fine spots as a test, which were a spot on my forehead, around my nose and on my cheeks. After application, all spots burned a bit, but the next day the rash spots by my mouth had become so dry and lost virtually 100% elasticity. It bled if i even smiled and the skin were to stretch a little, and applying any moisturizers would make it burn 10/10 searing burning pain. This new condition then seemed to cycle on a monthly schedule of becoming almost normal then flaky then super dry and i cringed everytime this happened. As for the test spots, ALL of those spots are permanently thinned, weaker, and are lighter than the unmedicated skin, so i have a multitoned complexion now. I took this medication about 9 years ago and these effects are basically still there, except that the extremely dry spot on my mouth gradually improved their elasticity from year 5 and on. I've found that I've needed to drastically limit my sugar and carbs, otherwise those spots that were damaged by the ketoconazole all revert back. I honestly wish i could sue the doctor for causing me this permanent damage and urge everyone, if you will use this, use it as sparingly as possible because it can cause permanent damage to your skin. The label even said "could cause skin lightening, thinning, dryness", but who would ever imagine the extent and PERMANENT DAMAGE. Read More Read Less
