Lyclear Dermal Cream is used to treat infestations of scabies and crab lice on the body. It contains the ingredient permethrin which belongs to a group of medicines called pyrethroids which kill mites such as scabies and crab lice. You must talk to a doctor if the symptoms worsen or do not improve.

For adults and children aged over 2, the cream should be applied across the whole body apart from the face and neck. Particular attention should be paid to your armpits, between fingers and toes, genital areas, buttocks and wrists. The cream should be left on overnight before washing.

Children under the age of 2 should not use Lyclear unless specifically prescribed by a doctor.

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Lyclear Dermal Cream:

– If you are treating infants

– If you are known to be allergic to chrysanthemums or other compositae

– you should only use Lyclear Dermal Cream after speaking to your doctor. Do not smoke or go near naked flames

– risk of severe burns. Fabric (clothing, bedding, dressings etc) that has been in contact with this product burns more easily and is a serious fire hazard. Washing clothing and bedding may reduce product build-up but not totally remove it.

For cutaneous use only! Do not swallow this medicine. Avoid contact with eyes or mucous membranes (inside the nose or throat, genital region) or open wounds. Lyclear Dermal Cream may worsen symptoms of asthma or eczema.
