DIRECTIONS FOR PATIENTS WITH SCABIES: 1)Take a routine bath or shower. Thoroughly massage antiscabies cream (crotamiton) or lotion into the skin from the chin to the toes including folds and creases. 2)Put cream or lotion under fingernails after trimming the fingernails short, because scabies are very likely to remain there. A toothbrush can be used to apply the Eurax cream or lotion under the fingernails. Immediately after use, the toothbrush should be wrapped in paper and thrown away. Use of the same brush in the mouth could lead to poisoning. 3)A second application is advisable 24 hours later. 4)A 60 gram tube or bottle is sufficient for two applications. Clothing and bed linen should be changed the next day. Contaminated clothing and bed linen may be dry-cleaned, or washed in the hot cycle of the washing machine. 5)A cleansing bath should be taken 48 hours after the last application.
