Skirex Cream With Vitamin E is a specialized topical formulation containing Ketoconazole, Clobetasol Propionate, Neomycin Sulfate, and Vitamin E. This unique combination provides antifungal, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and skin-nourishing properties in a single treatment for various dermatological conditions.
Uses
Skirex Cream treats multiple skin conditions including fungal infections (ringworm, athlete’s foot, jock itch), inflammatory disorders (eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis), and bacterial skin infections. This versatile formulation addresses complex skin issues that may have multiple underlying causes.
Benefits
- Eliminates fungal infections through potent antifungal activity
- Reduces inflammation, redness, and itching in dermatitis
- Controls bacterial growth on affected skin areas
- Nourishes and protects skin with antioxidant properties
- Accelerates healing of damaged skin tissue
- Provides quick relief from discomfort and irritation
- Creates moisture barrier to support skin recovery

How It Works
Ketoconazole disrupts fungal cell membranes by inhibiting ergosterol synthesis. Clobetasol Propionate, a potent corticosteroid, reduces inflammation by binding to steroid receptors. Neomycin Sulfate inhibits bacterial protein synthesis to eliminate bacterial infections. Vitamin E provides antioxidant protection, promotes healing, and moisturizes damaged skin.
Dosage
Condition Type | Application Frequency | Treatment Duration |
---|---|---|
Mild cases | 1-2× daily | 1-2 weeks |
Moderate cases | 2× daily | 2-4 weeks |
Severe cases | As directed by doctor | 4-6 weeks |
Apply a thin layer to affected areas and gently massage until absorbed. Wash hands after application unless treating hand infections.
Duration of Action
Skirex Cream begins working within 30 minutes of application. Anti-inflammatory effects become noticeable within hours, while antifungal and antibacterial actions develop over 1-3 days of consistent use. The cream remains active on the skin for approximately 12-24 hours after application, depending on the condition being treated.
Side Effects
Common side effects include temporary burning, stinging, or redness at application sites. Less common effects include skin dryness, mild itching, or changes in skin color. Prolonged use, especially on large areas, may cause skin thinning, increased susceptibility to bruising, or steroid-related effects.
Warning
Avoid using on open wounds, infected areas with pus, or in the eyes. Discontinue if severe irritation develops. Do not use longer than prescribed due to risk of skin thinning and systemic absorption of corticosteroids. Not recommended for children under 12 unless specifically directed by a physician.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
Use Skirex Cream during pregnancy only when clearly needed and for limited periods. Corticosteroids may pose risks to fetal development if absorbed systemically. Breastfeeding mothers should avoid applying to chest area and should consult healthcare providers before using on large body areas.
Interaction
- May increase effect of other topical medications applied to same area
- Potential interaction with products containing alcohol causing irritation
- Should not be used concurrently with other steroid-containing products
- May reduce effectiveness of latex products including condoms
- Possible increased sensitivity with retinoid or exfoliating products
Precaution
Avoid covering treated areas with occlusive dressings unless directed by physician. Protect treated areas from excessive sun exposure. Do not use for conditions other than those prescribed. Use caution in patients with history of glaucoma or cataracts if applied near eyes. Report worsening of condition or lack of improvement after 7 days.
Important Information
Skirex Cream is a prescription medication for external use only. Store at room temperature away from direct sunlight and heat. Keep medication out of reach of children. Complete the full course of treatment even if symptoms improve quickly to prevent recurrence. Discard any unused product after treatment completion.
