Product information updated: 10 October 2026. Educational information based on the references below; not an individual prescription.
Nizral 2% Cream is listed as a topical ketoconazole antifungal. It is intended for skin use, and should not be confused with ketoconazole shampoo or oral tablets.
Ketoconazole skin preparations are used for susceptible fungal or yeast-related conditions, including some athlete’s-foot, groin and skin-fold infections. Clinicians may also use a suitable preparation for seborrhoeic dermatitis or pityriasis versicolor.
An itchy or scaly rash is not always fungal. Recurrent, widespread or unusual rashes need assessment rather than repeated antifungal changes.

This catalogue entry is for cream. Shampoo instructions, wash-off times and tablet doses do not apply. Confirm the intended application site and diagnosis with your pharmacist.
Follow the supplied leaflet for frequency and treatment duration. Clean and dry the affected area, wash hands after application unless treating them, and avoid the eyes and mouth. Do not share towels for a suspected contagious fungal infection.
Local burning, redness or irritation can occur. Seek advice if symptoms worsen or fail to improve within the expected course. Stop and seek urgent help for facial swelling or breathing difficulty.
Discuss other creams on the same area, pregnancy, breastfeeding and use in children. If you have been using a steroid cream for a long time, ask how to manage the change. Do not increase the quantity to make it work faster.
The listed ingredient is ketoconazole alone. Check your pack to ensure you have the intended product.
No. The dosage forms have different application instructions.
No. Eczema, irritation, scabies and other conditions can resemble fungal infection.
Improvement is usually assessed over a course of treatment, not after one application. Duration varies with the diagnosis and site.
Some fungal conditions leave colour changes that take longer to settle. Persistent or changing marks still need assessment.
For darker marks after acne rather than a fungal rash, read azelaic acid versus tretinoin for acne and dark marks. These are different treatment contexts.
