Ectomethrin lotion is used to treat lice and scabies. It kills parasites that live on the skin, such as lice and their eggs, as well as the mite that causes scabies. It is considered an effective treatment recommended by doctors in such cases. It is applied directly to the skin and left for a specific period according to the doctor’s instructions. Then it is washed well. It should be used on the entire body in cases of scabies, focusing on areas where infection is common, such as between the fingers, under the armpits, and in skin folds.
Ectomethrin is also used in cases of lice by applying it to the scalp and entire hair, then washing it after the specified period. Clothes and bedding should be washed well to prevent reinfection. It should be used with caution in children. Avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, and mucous membranes when using it.
