Overview Permetron Lotion
DermaClear Lotion combats parasitic infestations. It's indicated for scabies, a skin condition caused by microscopic mite infestation. This medication eliminates both the mites and their eggs. Your physician will provide application instructions and dosage. Carefully review the accompanying patient leaflet for correct usage. Ensure your skin is clean, dry, and at room temperature prior to application. A thorough body wash is recommended 8–14 hours post-application. While usually a single application suffices, a second application may be necessary after at least 7 days. Post-treatment itching, lasting several weeks, is often an allergic response to deceased mites, not treatment failure. Common, generally mild, side effects include localized burning, stinging, or tingling. Not all users experience side effects. Inform your doctor of any pre-existing skin conditions, allergies (medications, food, or other substances), or asthma before using. Consult your doctor regarding use during pregnancy or breastfeeding, despite the medication's generally safe profile.
