Tiny insects that spread through close contact, dirty clothing, bedding, or unsanitary environments are typically the cause of body lice infestations. Severe itching, particularly around the waist, armpits, and body folds, may result from it. Wash clothes, towels, and bed linens in hot water, let them dry thoroughly in the sun, take frequent baths, and wear clean clothes every day to manage it. Treatment may also be required for family members or close contacts, as well as anti-lice lotions or medications. See a physician or dermatologist for appropriate treatment if the skin becomes infected or the itching persists.

Scrabic Lotion is mainly used for scabies and head lice and is not meant to be used on your own for pubic lice. Since itching in the genital area can have different causes, it is important first to get a proper medical examination to confirm whether it is actually pubic lice; a doctor can then decide the correct and safe treatment and guide how it should be used, especially because the genital area is sensitive and incorrect use may cause irritation or ineffective treatment.

Follow your doctor’s instructions on how and when to use this medicine. Scrabic Lotion is mainly used for scabies, but it may be used for head lice only if advised by your doctor. For scabies, apply a thin layer to the entire body from the neck down on clean, dry skin. Avoid the face and scalp unless advised. Leave it on for 8 to 12 hours or overnight, then wash it off thoroughly. For head lice, if prescribed, apply it to the scalp and hair, leave it on as advised, then rinse well and comb out lice and eggs. Avoid contact with the eyes, nose, or mouth, and wash clothes, bedding, and towels to prevent reinfestation.
