Arotrix-C Lotion combines Permethrin and Crotamiton to provide effective treatment for scabies and associated itching. This dual-action formulation not only eliminates the mites responsible for scabies but also helps relieve the intense itching and skin irritation that commonly accompany the infestation.

Permethrin is a pyrethroid antiparasitic agent that kills scabies mites and their eggs by disrupting their nervous system. Crotamiton has antipruritic (anti-itch) and scabicidal properties, helping soothe irritated skin while contributing to the treatment of the infestation. Together, these ingredients offer comprehensive management of scabies and improve patient comfort during recovery.

In infants, young children, older adults, or when advised by a doctor, application may also include the scalp, neck, forehead, and temples, avoiding the eyes and mouth.
• Leave the lotion on for the duration recommended by your physician, typically 8–14 hours, before washing it off.
