Method of application

Apply externally, locally. Shake the product before use. For use in children aged 3 to 5 years, dilute the product with boiled water in a ratio of 1: 1.

Scabies

To prevent secondary infestation, simultaneous treatment of all family members living together, as well as contact persons, is necessary. Before applying the emulsion, it is necessary to take a shower. Apply the emulsion (you can use a brush) to the entire body, except for the face and scalp. Apply especially carefully to the wrists, hands, armpits, buttocks, groin area, under the nails, areas between the fingers and toes, and the soles of the feet. Let the emulsion dry (usually 10 minutes in a warm room). After the emulsion has dried, put on clean underwear and change bed linen. Do not wash your hands for 3 hours after treatment.

With careful application of the emulsion, one treatment of the skin is usually sufficient. However, repeated treatment within 5 days reduces the likelihood of residual infestation.

An alternative treatment method is to apply the emulsion to the entire body, except for the face and scalp, 3 times with an interval of 12 hours. 12 hours after the last application of the drug, you should take a hot shower, change underwear and bed linen.

Demodecosis

The drug should be used in the evening. Wash your face with warm water and soap, then apply the drug in a thin layer to the skin of the face, avoiding contact with the eyes, nose and mouth. In the morning, wash your face with warm water and soap. The duration of treatment is determined by the dynamics of skin cleansing, elimination of the inflammatory process, cessation of itching and is usually 2-3 weeks.

Pediculosis

Apply the product to the affected area, rubbing it lightly into the skin and hair; tie your head with a scarf. After 30 minutes, wash off with soap and water. In serious cases, repeat the procedure 2-3 times. The effectiveness of the treatment should be determined a week after the last treatment.
