Overview Acthrin 5% Soap

Lindane 5% soap is a topical parasiticide indicated for scabies treatment. Scabies is a skin infestation caused by tiny mites. This medication eradicates both adult mites and their eggs. Dosage and application instructions will be provided by your physician; always carefully review the accompanying patient leaflet. Ensure your skin is clean, dry, and at room temperature prior to application. A thorough body wash 8-14 hours post-application is required. While usually a single application suffices, a second treatment may be necessary after a minimum 7-day interval. Post-treatment itching, often lasting several weeks, is typically a reaction to dead mites, not treatment failure. Mild burning, stinging, or tingling at the application site are common, though generally mild and not universally experienced. Inform your doctor of any pre-existing skin conditions, allergies (medications, foods, or other substances), or asthma before use. Consult your doctor regarding use during pregnancy or breastfeeding, despite the generally accepted safety profile.
