Effective Treatment for Scabies and Lice
DGF Permethrin Cream 5% w/w is a highly effective topical medication specifically formulated to treat scabies (infestations caused by Sarcoptes scabiei mites) and crab lice. Manufactured by Drugfield Pharmaceuticals Ltd (DGF), this cream is a trusted first-line treatment in Nigeria for managing skin parasite infestations.
How DGF Permethrin Cream Works
The active ingredient, Permethrin (5%), belongs to the pyrethroid family. It acts as a neurotoxin that paralyzes and kills both the adult mites and their eggs. This ensures that the infestation is cleared effectively, providing relief from itching and skin irritation.
Application and Dosage
For the treatment of scabies, DGF Permethrin Cream should be applied to the entire body from the neck down to the soles of the feet. It is important to leave the cream on for 8 to 14 hours before washing it off thoroughly. A single application is usually sufficient to clear the infestation, although a second application may be recommended by a healthcare professional if new symptoms appear.
