Permite is a clinically proven permethrin cream, formulated as permethrin 5% cream, designed for effective at-home treatment of scabies and certain mite infestations. This topical medication works by paralyzing and eliminating mites and their eggs, providing relief from associated symptoms. It is applied as a thin layer to clean, dry skin, left on for 8–12 hours, then washed off. Most cases resolve with a single application; a second dose may be advised after 7–14 days if necessary. Mild side effects like redness, itching, or burning are common but typically transient. Suitable for adults and children over two months.
