KFC Cream is a combination of four medicines: Ketoconazole, Fluocinolone acetonide, Neomycin, and Menthol. Ketoconazole is an antifungal medication. It kills fungi by destroying the fungal cell membrane. This treats your infection. Fluocinolone acetonide is a steroid that works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause inflammation (redness, pain, and swelling) and allergies. Neomycin is an antibiotic. It stops bacterial growth by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. Menthol is an extract from peppermint that provides a cooling effect on the skin. This is how it works to treat the infection.
