Hi sir. Im neha chopra. My scabies treatment is going on. My doctor prescribed me two applications of permethrin lotion and told me to use one application in one week and other application after 7 days. And I did the same but I still have itching in my body so today I go to doctor now he prescribed me gamma benzene hexachloride soap and lotion. And he told me to use soap and lotion for 5 days regular. So I want to ask that if I will use the soap and lotion regular for 5 days will there be any serious side of that soap and lotion?

Treatment is fine scabies takes time to heal it has to kill all the mites please avoid following: prolonged skin-to-skin contact, such as holding hands intimate personal contact, such as having sexual intercourse sharing clothing, bedding, or towels that have been used by someone with a scabies infection.
