| Description: |
This preparation is used to treat skin infections with mites (scabies) or crab lice.
Permethrin Cream is used in scabies treatment and in crab lice treatment. Permethrin belongs to a group of medicines called the pyrethroids which are anti-parasitic agents
How does it work?
Permethrin is a synthetic chemical that has a broad spectrum of insecticidal activity. It is taken up by insects through their mouth, airways or their surface coverings.
Permethrin works by binding to a particular site (sodium channels) on nerve endings. This leads to a complex series of reactions in various organs, leading to paralysis of the nervous system, inhibition of metabolism and ultimately death of the insect. |

| Important Usage Instructions: |
|
Permethrin Cream is for external use only and should be kept out of reach of children.
Permethrin is not an eye irritant but contact with the eyes should be avoided because the cream itself may cause marked irritation.
In the event of inadvertent eye contamination, the affected area should be rinsed immediately with plenty of water or, if readily available, normal saline.
Nursing staff who routinely apply Permethrin Cream may wish to wear gloves to avoid any possible irritation to the hands.
There is an increasing body of data specifically relating to the use of Permethrin Cream for the treatment of scabies in the elderly and in view of these data it is considered that there is no need for any special precautions for use in this age group
You should carefully read all product packaging and labels prior to use

| Side Effects: |
|
No interactions are known.
The treatment of eczematous-like reactions with corticosteroids should be withheld prior to treatment with the Cream, as there is a risk of exacerbating the scabies infestation by reducing the immune response to the mite. The likelihood of interactions between the two treatments leading to potentiated adverse reactions or reduced efficacy is, however, small.
