Uses of Scab-N-Lice Lotion

Benefits of Scab-N-Lice Lotion

In Scabies

Scabies is a condition caused by tiny insects called mites that infest and irritate your skin. Scab-N-Lice Lotion is an anti-parasite medicine. It works by paralyzing and killing the mites and their eggs. Generally, the cream should be applied to the whole body except the face and head but follow your doctor’s advice. It should be thoroughly washed off after 8-12 hours. Often one application is enough to treat the condition completely but sometimes a second one may be required a week later. This will get rid of the itching, swelling, and redness caused by mites. However, dead mites may still make you itch for some time.

How to use Scab-N-Lice Lotion

This medicine is for external use only. Use this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Shake it well and apply to the area evenly.
