For external use only. Apply to clean, dry skin. Do not ingest. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes (mouth, nose, vagina, anal area). If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. Hands should be washed after application.

Permethrin acts on the neuron membranes of arthropods (mites and lice), causing depolarization by disrupting the sodium channel current that regulates the polarization of the membrane. This leads to paralysis and death of the parasites.

• •Hypersensitivity to permethrin, other pyrethroids or pyrethrins, or any component of the cream.

Store below 30°C (86°F). Do not freeze. Keep away from direct heat and sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.

Over-application or prolonged exposure may increase local side effects such as burning, itching, or erythema. Systemic overdose is unlikely due to minimal absorption. If ingested, supportive measures are advised, including gastric lavage if necessary.

Pregnancy Category B. Studies in animals have not shown fetal harm, but adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women are lacking. Use in pregnancy only if clearly needed and the potential benefit outweighs the potential risk to the fetus. Exercise caution when administering to a nursing mother; permethrin and/or its metabolites may be excreted in human milk. Temporary cessation of breastfeeding may be considered.
