Active composition
Permethrin disrupts the function of the insect's nervous system, leading to paralysis and death of the parasites.
Medical applications
Klmite Cream contains Permethrin 5% w/w, a synthetic pyrethroid with potent acaricidal and insecticidal properties, indicated for the topical treatment of scabies and other ectoparasitic infestations. Permethrin acts by disrupting the sodium channel current in the nerve cells of parasites, leading to delayed repolarization, paralysis, and eventual death of the mites. Klmite Cream is applied as a thin layer over the entire body from the neck down, left on for 8 to 14 hours before washing off, ensuring effective eradication of the infestation.
The formulation is generally well-tolerated, with adverse effects limited to mild local reactions such as transient burning, stinging, itching, or erythema at the application site. It is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to permethrin or any component of the cream. Caution is advised when used in infants, pregnant or breastfeeding women, and patients with extensive skin lesions.
Reapplication may be necessary after 7 to 10 days if symptoms persist. Klmite Cream should be used in conjunction with environmental decontamination measures to prevent reinfestation. Patients are advised to follow the prescribed treatment regimen and consult a healthcare professional if symptoms worsen or fail to improve.
