• Paralyses Mites: Permethrin disrupts the nervous system of scabies mites, leading to their paralysis and eventual death.
• Destroys Eggs: Besides killing adult mites, Permethrin also effectively eliminates their eggs, thus preventing further infestation.
• Provides Rapid Relief: By killing off mites and their eggs, Permethrin helps provide quick relief from the discomforting symptoms of scabies.

• Always store Pedimite 5 % Cream 30 GM at room temperature below 30°C.
• Keep it away from direct sunlight and avoid damp places like bathrooms; moisture can spoil the cream.
• Ensure that the cream is kept out of reach of children.

• As scabies is a contagious disease, maintaining good personal hygiene is crucial. Regularly wash your clothes and bed linens in hot water to kill any remaining mites.
• Consider incorporating anti-inflammatory foods into your diet to soothe the itchiness associated with scabies. Foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, like fish and walnuts, can help reduce inflammation and alleviate itching.
