Can I use a steroid cream along with Ketoraz Cream?
It is recommended to use a mild steroid ointment like hydrocortisone cream/ointment in the morning and Ketoraz Cream in the evening. Gradually discontinue the steroid cream over 2-3 weeks. However, if you have used a potent corticosteroid for seborrheic dermatitis, ensure at least a 2-week break before applying Ketoraz Cream to prevent skin sensitization.

For how long do I need to use Ketoraz Cream?
Use Ketoraz Cream for as long as recommended by your doctor, typically 2-4 weeks for jock itch and sweat rash, and 2-6 weeks for athlete's foot. Do not discontinue using it even if symptoms disappear because the infection may recur if not fully treated.
