Warnings and Precautions
Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to use Perme-cure.
Scabies infestation is often accompanied by itching, mild burning, or stinging after application with Perme-cure. Treatment with Perme-cure may temporarily exacerbate these symptoms, although they usually disappear within 2 to 4 weeks. If irritation persists for a longer period, you should consult your doctor.
In case of a hypersensitivity reaction to Perme-cure, its use should be discontinued.
Be careful with this cream if you are prone to asthma attacks, as the use of permethrin may cause difficulty breathing.
If you know you are allergic to chrysanthemums or other plants of the Compositae family, Perme-cure should only be used after consulting your doctor.
Caregivers are recommended to use gloves when applying permethrin.
Avoid contact between Perme-cure and the eyes. If accidental contact occurs, the eyes should be rinsed immediately with plenty of water.
Do not apply to wounds or mucous membranes.
Children up to 23 months of age
Do not use Perme-cure in newborns and infants under 2 months of age, unless your doctor advises you to do so. There is no adequate experience in infants. Treatment for children up to 23 months of age should only be administered under close medical supervision.

No interactions with other medications have been reported.

3. How to use Perme-cure
Follow the instructions for administration of this medication exactly as indicated by your doctor or pharmacist. If in doubt, consult your doctor or pharmacist again.
