Permethrin Cream 5% is a topical medication used for the treatment of scabies and specific head lice infestations. It contains permethrin, an active pyrethroid ingredient that works by paralyzing and killing the mites or lice responsible for the infestation. This provides rapid relief from itching and discomfort associated with these conditions.

Permethrin Cream 5% contains the active ingredient:

  • Permethrin (5%): A synthetic pyrethroid that kills mites and lice by disrupting their nervous system.
Please refer to patient information leaflet.

Usage Instructions:

  • Scabies Treatment:
  • Adults and children over 2 months old: Apply the cream to the entire body from the neck down, including the soles of the feet. Make sure to cover all skin surfaces.
  • Leave the cream on for 8-14 hours, usually overnight.
  • After the recommended time, wash the cream off thoroughly with warm, soapy water.
  • Reapply the cream after 7 days if necessary.
  • Head Lice Treatment:
  • For head lice, apply the cream to clean, dry hair and scalp.
  • Leave the cream on for 10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with warm water.
  • Comb the hair with a fine-toothed comb to remove dead lice and nits (eggs).
  • Repeat the treatment after 7-10 days if live lice are still present.
  • For external use only. Permethrin Cream is intended for application to the skin and scalp only. Do not ingest or apply to open wounds or mucous membranes.
  • Discontinue use and seek immediate medical attention if you experience signs of an allergic reaction, such as rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, or difficulty breathing.
  • Avoid contact with eyes. If accidental eye contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
  • Consult a healthcare provider before using Permethrin Cream if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
  • Use with caution in children under 2 months old. Follow your healthcare provider's guidance.
  • Store Permethrin Cream at room temperature and keep it out of reach of children.
  • Inform your healthcare provider of all medications you are currently taking, as certain drug interactions may occur.
