Permtrin Lotion 50ml is applied topically.

Permtrin Lotion 50ml contains permethrin (5%), which acts on your body in the following ways:

• Paralyses Scabies Mites: Permethrin disrupts the nerve cell membranes of scabies mites. This leads to prolonged over-excitement in these mites, causing them to become paralyzed.
• Kills Scabies Mites and Their Eggs: Permethrin's paralysis eventually kills both mature scabies mites and their eggs. This helps effectively manage and prevent further scabies infestations.

• Store Permtrin Lotion 50ml in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Maintain an ideal temperature below 25°C.
• Keep it in a tightly closed container to avoid exposure to air.
• Always keep this medicine out of the reach of children.

• Keep your living and sleeping areas clean and well-ventilated to minimise exposure to scabies mites.
• Regularly wash your clothes, bed linen, and towels in hot water, as this can help manage scabies by killing any mites present.
