What is Permethrin?
Permethrin, the active ingredient in Infectoscab, is a pyrethroid insecticide presented as a topical formulation for cutaneous use. It treats scabies and pediculosis in patients of all ages when applied according to professional guidance.
GNH USA supplies Infectoscab as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.
What is Permethrin used for?
Permethrin is a pyrethroid scabicide and pediculicide used to treat ectoparasitic skin infestations.
Scabies: eliminates the Sarcoptes scabiei mite and reduces associated itching. Pediculosis (lice infestation): kills head lice and nits on the scalp and body hair. Crusted scabies: helps control severe infestations in immunocompromised individuals.
What are the side effects of Permethrin?
Adverse reactions are generally limited to the site of application, but both common and serious events have been reported.
Common Side Effects: - Skin irritation or mild burning sensation - Redness or erythema at the application site - Itching or pruritus - Dryness or flaking of the skin - Mild rash or papular eruption - Localized swelling
Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Allergic reactions such as urticaria or anaphylaxis - Severe dermatitis or chemical burns - Stevens‑Johnson syndrome or toxic epidermal necrolysis - Systemic toxicity (rare, usually with extensive skin involvement) - Persistent or worsening skin inflammation - Neurological symptoms such as headache or dizziness (very rare)
What precautions apply to Permethrin?
Before using Infectoscab, consider the following safety measures.
Apply only to intact skin: avoid broken or inflamed areas. Avoid contact with eyes, mouth, and mucous membranes. Do not use on infants younger than two months unless directed by a clinician. Keep away from pets and other animals during treatment. Do not combine with other topical insecticides without medical advice. Store at room temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and direct heat.
What does Permethrin interact with?
Permethrin may interact with other topical agents or systemic medications.
Major Interactions (Avoid): - Concurrent use of other topical insecticides may increase skin irritation. - Application over chlorhexidine‑treated skin can reduce permethrin efficacy.
Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Systemic antihistamines may mask early signs of an allergic reaction. - Use with other scabicidal or pediculicidal products may cause cumulative irritation. - Application before sunscreen may affect drug absorption. - Co‑administration with corticosteroid creams may alter local immune response.
