Xolegel

Xolegel (generic name: ketoconazole) is a topical antifungal gel used to treat seborrheic dermatitis, a common skin condition that causes redness, scaling, and dandruff-like flaking, particularly on the scalp, face, and chest. Ketoconazole, the active ingredient in Xolegel, works by inhibiting the growth of fungi and yeasts, which contribute to the inflammation and symptoms of seborrheic dermatitis.

Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Xolegel Work?

Ketoconazole in Xolegel works by interfering with the synthesis of ergosterol, a vital component of fungal cell membranes. By disrupting the cell membrane, ketoconazole weakens the fungus, preventing its growth and leading to the resolution of seborrheic dermatitis symptoms.

Common Dosages

  • Ketoconazole 2% topical gel

Typical Dosing

  • Apply a thin layer of Xolegel to the affected areas of the skin once daily for 2 weeks. The duration of treatment may vary based on the severity of the condition and the healthcare provider’s recommendations.

Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Treatment of seborrheic dermatitis in immunocompetent adults and adolescents.

Who Shouldn't Take Xolegel?

  • Known hypersensitivity to ketoconazole or any components of the formulation.

Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Clean and dry the affected area before applying Xolegel. Apply a thin layer of the gel and gently rub it in.
  • Avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, and mucous membranes. If the gel comes into contact with these areas, rinse thoroughly with water.
  • Xolegel is for external use only. Do not use it on broken or irritated skin unless directed by your healthcare provider.
  • Do not cover the treated area with occlusive dressings unless instructed by your healthcare provider, as this may increase the risk of side effects.
