Active composition
Permethrin disrupts the function of the insect's nervous system, leading to paralysis and death of the parasites.
Medical applications
HHMite Cream contains Permethrin 50 mg/gm, a synthetic pyrethroid with potent acaricidal and insecticidal properties, indicated for the topical treatment of scabies and other mite infestations. Permethrin acts by disrupting the sodium channel currents in the nerve cell membranes of mites, leading to delayed repolarization, paralysis, and eventual death of the parasites. HHMite Cream is applied directly to the affected skin areas, typically once daily for a prescribed duration, ensuring thorough coverage from the neck down to the feet, including interdigital spaces and under the nails.
It is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to permethrin or any component of the formulation. Adverse effects are generally mild and transient, including localized burning, itching, erythema, or dryness at the application site. Caution is advised when used in infants, pregnant, or lactating women, and it should be kept away from mucous membranes and eyes.
Proper hygiene and environmental decontamination are recommended to prevent reinfestation. HHMite Cream offers an effective, well-tolerated therapeutic option for managing scabies, contributing to symptom relief and eradication of the mite infestation when used as directed by a healthcare professional.
