Overview Lindane Lotion
Lindane Lotion, an ectoparasiticide, effectively combats scabies infestations. This skin condition is characterized by irritating mite and egg infestations. The lotion's action eliminates these parasites. Dosage and application instructions, provided by your physician and within the product packaging, must be meticulously followed. Always use synthetic latex gloves during application, avoiding eye contact. Rinse immediately with copious amounts of water if accidental exposure occurs. Application typically covers the entire body excluding the head, face, and mucous membranes. Ensure skin is clean, dry, and at room temperature prior to use. Following each application, change clothing, bedding, and towels to prevent re-infestation. Mild burning, stinging, or tingling at the application site are common, though often transient and not universally experienced. Post-treatment itching, potentially lasting several weeks, may represent an allergic response to dead mites, rather than treatment failure. Pre-treatment consultation is mandatory for patients with severe chronic illnesses such as cancer or HIV/AIDS, and for pregnant or breastfeeding individuals.
