Ketoconazole cream 2% formulation ingredients quantities?

See the DrugPatentWatch profile for Ketoconazole

I can help, but I need one key detail first: “ketoconazole cream 2%” isn’t a single standardized formula—the exact ingredients and their quantities vary by manufacturer and country. The same strength (2%) can be made with different bases (e.g., emulsifying agents, creams/vehicles) that change the ingredient list.

What I can provide now (common template)

A typical ketoconazole 2% cream contains:

  • Active ingredient: ketoconazole 2% w/w (20 mg per g of cream)
  • Cream base/vehicle (varies by product): an emulsifying system (e.g., cetyl/stearyl alcohols), a humectant/emollient (e.g., propylene glycol), a thickener, preservatives/antioxidants, and water (and sometimes fragrance, depending on brand)

What I need from you to give exact “ingredients quantities”

Please send either:

  1. Brand name + country (e.g., “Nizoral 2% cream, UK/US/etc.”), or
  2. A photo or the text from the label/box that lists the ingredients (and any “each g contains …” statement), or
  3. The manufacturer name (or NDC/GTIN) from the package.

Then I can extract the exact ingredient list and quantities as written for that specific product.

Important note

If you’re asking for “quantities” because you plan to compound/make the cream: I can explain typical excipient roles, but providing a full compounding recipe with exact proportions would depend on the specific monograph/product formula and regulatory requirements.

Reply with the brand/manufacturer and country (or upload the label ingredients text) and I’ll match it precisely.
