About This Product
Scabper Lotion 60ml is a prescription topical medicine commonly used for the treatment of scabies, a skin condition caused by tiny mites that burrow into the skin and cause intense itching and rashes. It contains Permethrin 5% w/v, an antiparasitic ingredient that is widely recommended by healthcare professionals for managing scabies.
Scabies can spread through close personal contact, making timely treatment important for both the affected person and, in many cases, close family members or household contacts. Scabper Lotion is designed to be applied to the skin so the medicine can act directly where the mites live. When used according to your doctor's instructions, it helps remove the mites responsible for the infestation.
Many people choose Scabper Lotion because it is easy to apply at home and is a well-known treatment option prescribed for scabies. Following the full treatment instructions, washing clothes and bedding, and treating close contacts when recommended can help reduce the chance of reinfestation.
Always use this medicine exactly as directed by your healthcare professional. If itching continues after treatment, it does not always mean the treatment has failed, as skin irritation may take some time to settle.
