Ketoderm is used to treat fungal skin infections such as ringworm, a skin infection that affects various areas of the skin, such as the feet, thighs, and body. It is used to treat infections caused by yeast fungi that cause conditions such as pityriasis versicolor, a skin disorder that causes light or dark patches to appear on the skin.
Ketoderm has been shown to be effective in treating cases of seborrheic dermatitis, a disorder that causes greasy scales and redness of the skin, especially on the scalp and face of people who suffer from this type of skin allergy. It can also be useful in relieving the symptoms of itching or irritation associated with the infection.
