User Reviews for ketoconazole topical

when used as directed the flakes and itching were gone in a couple of days.

This medication should be pulled from the market place. I asked my physician to prescribe something for a persistent area of athlete's foot (fungus) on three of my toes. He prescribed ketoconazole cream. I have applied the cream for five days. The cream hasn't cured the athlete's foot problem. It is worse. My skin is now so sore and inflamed that one spot bleeds. The cream cause a a new rash, adjacent to the athlete's foot area, covering an area larger than the athlete's foot. My results sound consistent with some other unsatisfactory reviews. Hey, why is the questions "ease of use" included in the review. How many medications are "difficult to use"? That questions isn't relevant to the vast majority of medicationsRead More Read Less

I have been using this product for 2 weeks with only slight improvment of my jock itch. It has been recommended by my Dermotologist

dermatologist diagnosed my right side of my scalp and right ear with seborrheic dermatitis recommend me to use this. i had a reduce in flakes but i still have a lot along with server itching and red spots.

3-4 weeks of condition and still not healed

drug reaction. caused a severe rash that lasted for days

11 yr old boy with rash,bumps. When used shampoo 2% his skin look red and was burning and added to rash April 17th,2009

This cream seemed to work for me at first, but then caused burning, and the fungal infection actually came back..

I have a yeast infection of the groin area. This is what the dermatologist told me. I used this cream and it did not good but it did cause a red scaly patch on the glans penis where it accidentally got on. Now it is red constantly and has skin scaly on it. I look like i have a sexual disease now. It still remains even though i have stopped using the drug after two weeks. I am seeing the dermatologists in a few days.

When i first put it on it burned like crazy! It finally stopped burning and started to look a whole lot better in less than a week. I am gratful for this treatment.

I HAD RASHES, BURNING SPOTS, SCABS, DANDRUFF & ITCHING IN MY SCALP AND GP SUGGESTED THIS MEDICATION FOR ME. THE MEDICINE HAS WORKED AND CLEARED ALL THE ABOVE, HOWEVER IT HAS CAUSED ME TO BREAK OUT SEVERELY WITH RED RASH SPOTS ALL OVER MY ARMS AND UPPER CHEST AREA AND ITCHES LIKE CRAZY.

I have been using the cream for over a month for ringworm on my legin 3 seperate spots. Two of the spots do look better, but the main spot actually got worse. It is very red and swollen and constantly itches. My GP wants me to keep useing for another month but wrap saran wrap around my leg at night. I do not think this medication works at all.

I have the shampoo for my daughter. She had oozing sores all in her hair. The shampoo helped a little but didn't clear it up. I found that Nutragena T-Gel extra strength worked alot better. She alternates between the two shampoos to keep her head clear.

I have a heart condition called rate dependent bundle branch block. Within 2 minutes of applying this shampoo to my scalp I had a rapid heart rate, pressure in my chest. Rinsed off immed and took cardiac meds. Hr and b/p very high. Would not recommend this med for anyone with a heart arrythmia..

I am very pleased with the results after only one week of use. I will continue until the dermatologist says to cease. Mine was around 10 inches long starting just below the knee continuing upwards and aprox 6 inches wide. I tried many over the counter products and am grateful to of now found the one for me.

I broke out with very red rash, itchy constantly, and burning sensation. I will stop using the product. Had to see GP about it.

It burns for awhile after applying to affected area. It takes a few minutes for the burn sensation to go away. It has been taking it's effectiveness slowly.

The doctor said I have to apply the ointment for three weeks. That is too long for me. I can't walk around for three weeks with ringworm. I used the medication for a week and saw VERY little results.

The cream caused me to break out in a rash with intense itching. I discontinued use and will never use again!!

The medication seemed to agrevate my sons condition and made it extremely difficult to clean the affected area without a daily struggle. Maybe in less severe conditions might this medication be more effective.
