Directions for Use

For external use only. Apply to clean, dry skin in affected areas (avoid applying right after a hot bath or shower, as this increases how much the skin absorbs) and massage gently. Leave the lotion on the skin for 8-12 hours as directed by your doctor, then bathe thoroughly to remove it. For head lice, wet the hair, apply the lotion, comb through with a fine-tooth comb, and rinse after 10-15 minutes. Repeat treatment only if your doctor advises it.

Storage and disposal

Store at room temperature away from light and moisture. Keep the bottle tightly closed. Do not freeze. Keep out of reach of children.

Quick Tips

  • Wash all bedding, clothing, and personal items in hot water to kill parasites
  • All close contacts should also be evaluated and treated if necessary
  • Avoid scratching to prevent secondary skin infections
  • After treatment, use a fine-tooth comb to remove dead lice and nits
  • Apply moisturizer to the treated area if skin irritation develops

Dosage

Overdose

If excessive amounts are absorbed through the skin, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

Since this is a topical treatment, the concept of a missed dose does not apply. Follow your doctor's schedule for reapplication if needed.

How does this medicine work?

Gamma benzene hexachloride penetrates the parasitic organism's nervous system, disrupting neurotransmission and causing paralysis followed by death. This effectively eliminates the mites and lice causing the infestation.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Tell your doctor about all topical medicines you are using. Do not apply other skin products to the same area without your doctor's advice.

Interactions with food items

As this is a topical medicine, there are no food interactions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

For scabies, leave it on for 8-12 hours as directed by your doctor. For lice, leave it on for 10-15 minutes. Follow your doctor's specific instructions.
These conditions spread through close contact. Treating all family members and close contacts prevents reinfection and breaks the transmission cycle.
Typically, a second application is needed 7-14 days after the first application. Your doctor will advise on the appropriate timing based on your condition.
