How It works
Scarab Lotion 100 ml is a skin medicine that has antiparasitic properties. It contains Lindane and Cetrimide. Scarab Lotion 100 ml is used to relieve the pain, discomfort and itchiness caused by skin infections such as scabies. Lindane shows insecticidal (insect-killing) properties. It exerts a neurotoxic effect on the nerve cells of the causative organism and causes paralysis and death of the insect and its eggs. Cetrimide functions as an antiseptic by virtue of its bacteria and insect-killing nature. It also shows detergent and emulsifying qualities that helps its surface action, thereby relieving itching, redness, inflammation and irritation of the skin. Scarab Lotion 100 ml is hence used to treat surface-level itches and superficial infections.
