Pharmacology :
ZOLORAL-SS is an antimycotic agent which inhibits the growth of dermatophytes (e.g. Trichophyton, Epidermophyton, Microsporum) and yeasts (e.g. Candida) and Malassezia furfur (Pityrosporum orbiculare).
ZOLORAL-SS can remove patches on the trunk and itching due to Pityriasis versicolor, Dermatitis seborrhoeic and Pityriasis capitis (dandruff).
Hardly no Ketoconazole absorption occurs through the skin.Therefore no detectable ketoconazole levels were found in the blood, so that no systemic effects were observed even after continuous use.
Indications :
ZOLORAL-SS is indicated for the treatment and prophylaxis of yeast infections of the Pityrosporum type, such as Pityriasis versicolor (on certain regions), Dermatitis seborrhoeic and Pityriasis capitis which have been clearly diagnosed.
