Consult your doctor before starting treatment. They can diagnose your condition and confirm Elimite cream is the right choice for you.
Follow the prescribed dosage carefully. Applying too little won’t clear the infestation, while too much can cause irritation.
- Apply a thin layer to affected areas, ensuring complete coverage. Wash your hands thoroughly after each application. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes.
Use Elimite cream for the full prescribed duration, even if symptoms improve early. Stopping treatment prematurely can lead to re-infestation.
Wash all bedding and clothing in hot water after your first application. This helps prevent re-infection.
Use clean towels and avoid sharing personal items. Vacuum your home thoroughly, paying attention to carpets and furniture. Clean frequently touched surfaces with disinfectant.
If you experience any side effects like burning, itching, or rash, discontinue use and contact your physician immediately.
