Elimite Uses
Elimite is used for the treatment of scabies.
How is Elimite Used?
Massage the skin from the head to the soles of the feet with Elimite. 30 grams should be sufficient for an application. Wash the cream off after 8 to 14 hours. Do not apply to open cuts or wounds. This could cause too much Elimite to be absorbed by your body. Talk to your doctor before taking Elimite if you are breast-feeding. Elimite may pass into breast-milk.
Warnings/Precautions
Do not apply Elimite to the eyes, nose, or mouth. Use water to wash it off immediately if this happens. You should avoid sexual contact with others until the infection has been cured.
Missed Dose
Elimite is applied only once so it is unlikely for you to miss a dose.
Possible Elimite Side Effects
Notify your doctor if any of the following Elimite side effects occur: itching, burning or stinging, tingling, numbness, redness, swelling, or rash.
Storage
Store at 15° to 25°C (59° to 77°F). Keep Elimite out of the reach of children.

Excessive use of Elimite may result in increased irritation and erythema. Contact your doctor if you suspect an overdose.
