Permite 5% Cream

Permite 5% Cream

Permite 5% Cream is a highly effective topical scabicide containing Permethrin, widely considered the first-line treatment for scabies infestations. It works as a neurotoxin that targets the nervous system of the Sarcoptes scabiei mites, causing paralysis and eventual death of both the adult mites and their eggs. This cream is specifically formulated to penetrate the skin layers where mites burrow, providing a comprehensive solution to stop the infestation and prevent its spread to others. By eradicating the parasites, Permite 5% helps relieve the intense nocturnal itching and skin eruptions associated with scabies, restoring skin health and comfort with usually just a single application.

Key Features

• Gold-Standard Scabicide: Contains 5% Permethrin, the most recommended concentration for the clinical treatment of scabies.
• Ovicidal Action: Not only kills live mites but is also effective against eggs, breaking the life cycle of the parasite.
• Single-Application Success: Designed to clear most infestations with one thorough, overnight application.
• Vanishing Cream Base: A non-greasy, easy-to-apply formula that absorbs into the skin without leaving a heavy residue or strong odor.
• Safe for Various Ages: Clinically approved for use in adults and infants as young as two months old under medical supervision.

Key Ingredients

• Permethrin (5% w/w)
• Cream Base

Precautions

• External Use Only: Avoid contact with eyes, nose, mouth, and sensitive mucous membranes.
• Post-Treatment Itch: It is normal for itching to persist for up to 2–4 weeks after the mites are dead; this is an allergic reaction to the mite debris and not a sign of treatment failure.
• Skin Irritation: Temporary burning, stinging, or redness may occur. If irritation persists or worsens, consult a dermatologist.
• Avoid Re-infestation: All close contacts (family members/partners) should be treated simultaneously, even if they show no symptoms.

How to Use

• Ensure the skin is clean, dry, and cool. Do not apply immediately after a hot bath.
• Massage the cream thoroughly into the skin from the head (avoiding eyes) to the soles of the feet, paying close attention to finger webs, wrists, armpits, and the groin area.
• Leave the cream on the body for 8 to 14 hours (usually overnight).
• Wash off the cream completely by showering with lukewarm water and mild soap.
• Environmental Cleaning: Wash all clothing, towels, and bed linens used in the last 48 hours in hot water (at least 60°C) and dry them on high heat to kill any remaining mites.
