INDICATIONS AND USAGE For eradication of scabies ( Sarcoptes scabiei ) and for symptomatic treatment of pruritic skin.

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION In Scabies: Thoroughly massage into the skin of the whole body from the chin down, paying particular attention to all folds and creases. A second application is advisable 24 hours later. Change clothing and bed linen the next morning. Take a cleansing bath 48 hours after the last application. In Pruritus: Massage gently into affected areas until medication is completely absorbed. Repeat as needed. DIRECTIONS FOR PATIENTS WITH SCABIES: Take a routine bath or shower. Thoroughly massage Eurax cream into the skin from the chin to the toes including folds and creases. Put Eurax cream under fingernails after trimming the fingernails short, because scabies are very likely to remain there. A toothbrush can be used to apply the Eurax cream under the fingernails. Immediately after use, wrap the toothbrush in paper and throw it away. Use of the same brush in the mouth could lead to poisoning. A second application is advisable 24 hours later. A 60 gram tube is sufficient for two applications. Change clothing and bed linen the next day. Dry clean contaminated clothing and bed linen, or wash in the hot cycle of the washing machine. Take a cleansing bath 48 hours after the last application.
