Crotamiton(Cat No.:I003703)is a topical antipruritic and scabicidal agent used to treat skin conditions such as scabies and pruritus. It works by killing the Sarcoptes scabiei mites responsible for scabies and providing relief from itching. Applied as a cream or lotion, Crotamiton soothes irritated skin and reduces discomfort associated with parasitic infestations and other dermatological conditions. Its dual action as a scabicide and antipruritic makes it a versatile treatment option. Crotamiton is well-tolerated and commonly used in both pediatric and adult patients.
