Benzemul 200ml
Benzemul 200ml
Benzemul lotion is for the treatment of scabies and body lice. It works by killing lice and mites by acting on their nervous system.
The itching and rash of scabies can sometimes be mistaken for dermatitis or other skin conditions. Scabies is usually confirmed by finding the mite burrows in the skin, which are more commonly seen in the finger webs and wrists, although they may also be found in the genital area, breasts, palms of hands, or soles of feet. The mite burrows may be up to 1 cm long but are often obscured by scratching.
